Talking about look and feel, Ubuntu 21.10 features an improved Yaru theme to accommodate the GNOME 40 desktop environment and removes the mixed Light and Dark theme from the Appearance panel in System Settings, which was used in previous releases.Īnother major change in Ubuntu 21.10 is the Firefox web browser as a Snap package by default. Ubuntu 21.10 sticks to the same look and feel that was used since 2011 with the Ubuntu 11.04 “Natty Narwhal” release, namely with the Ubuntu Dock on the left side of the screen and the menubar at the top of the screen.
However, the Activities Overview isn’t enabled by default and Ubuntu 21.10 doesn’t uses GNOME 40’s dock. Therefore, Ubuntu users will finally be able to enjoy GNOME 40’s redesigned Activities Overview with dynamic horizontal workspaces, new touchpad gestures, more engaging app browsing and launching, and much more. This is the first Ubuntu release to ship with a complete GNOME 40 desktop, as the Ubuntu 21.04 release only offered GNOME 40 apps on top of the GNOME 3.38 desktop environment. The biggest new feature of Ubuntu 21.10 “Impish Indri” is the GNOME 40 desktop environment. Ubuntu 21.10 is supported for the next nine months, until July 2022, so it’s the obvious upgrade choice.
Canonical released today Ubuntu 21.10 for download as the latest version of their popular Linux-based operating system for personal computers, servers, and cloud computing.ĭubbed as the “Impish Indri,” Ubuntu 21.10 has been in development for the past six months and comes as an upgrade to the Ubuntu 21.04 “Hiruste Hippo” release, which will reach end of life on January 2022.
