    Ubuntu 20.10

    Dec 15, 2020 4 minutes

    IN BRIEF

    Probably the world’s most popular Linux distribution. Now with a smoother Gnome desktop and even more Snaps. See also: Linux Mint, Pop!_OS, elementary OS, Solus OS.

    SPECS

    Minimum

    Processor: 2GHz

    RAM: 4GB

    Disk space: 25GB disk space

    We really enjoyed the last Ubuntu release, and indeed the slew of Ubuntu-derivatives (such as Mint and Pop!_OS) that have been rebased on 20.04. We’re still waiting patiently for elementary OS 6 though…

    For those unfamiliar with Ubuntu’s release cycle, this is the first of three interim, short-term release (STR) versions that Canonical and the community will use to shape the next LTS (long-term support) release in 2022.
