Hibernate does work in Linux, but you have to do some fiddling about first dependent on your distro.

Stack Exchange has been very helpful for me, as well as this forum. OMG Ubuntu was initially useful for setup of key programs, and any issues I tend to resolve through browsing SE or posting here....

You mean Canonical. But yes, a while ago I would have said your comment was farfetched, not so much now. Not that MS has said anything about that, before anyone interjects! But it's not unthinkable...

Didn't expect this to become quite so.... topical... in light of recent developments. I have used Ubuntu GNOME but can't quite bring myself to switch. Some people say they will go to 17.04 GNOME to...

Access to Arasaka - Ruin

But that's not how Microsoft work. Windows was always closed source and the community was never involved. Windows has now taken on a rolling release model because it's unprofitable for Microsoft to...

The theory is that MS has realised that desktop OSs don't make enough profit anymore and the market has moved on. Not just for Linux but overall. Ubuntu as a desktop has passed its usefulness to the...

It seems to say that they are working to completely abandon Ubuntu to the community altogether in the long-term. But that's not a bad thing.

It would be better from the perspective of profitability. It appears that making major/point releases for desktop OSs is not as profitable as it used to be [look at W10, a rolling release], hence the...

As I said, the most used OS for web-browsing.

Android is now the most-used OS in the world for web-browsing, more than Windows. Windows still has the lion's share of desktop usage, but overall web-browsing dominance is Android's.

I'm with you on this one, I would not recommend Debian for a new Linux user, it's a lot harder to configure. I would encourage the OP to try out Mint and different Ubuntu flavours first [primarily...

Haha indeed, edited!

Canonical has axed staff and is looking for investors. Not a very good sign.

As vasa stated. There are so many variables. Does it run well on your specs, do you like the desktop environment, does it come with the software you want out of the box, does it have gfx drivers that...

I am in agreement with Ahunt and Sohunt. I was a little disappointed to see a fork of 8 rather than 7. 7 is a very polished, intuitive, usable and attractive DE. I think it would make an excellent...

RC is due today.

Unity fork is happening

Take a look around

I think there are a few opinions on where to put this. But it makes most sense to put it in the chat forum, yes.

Does this also mean we lose ambience? It's by far the best theme for me. Does GNOME use it?

But it also begs the question: what is the difference between Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 18.04 LTS apart from lifecycle?

You're right, it will probably be swept up by the community. I remember using GNOME on Hardy Heron, so this is like retrofuture Ubuntu.
