Ubuntu 23.04 Lunar Lobster released six days back..

The new Ubuntu version has been very encouraging regarding loading time and other software. But still I am unable to access my Microsoft email (official email) and have to read it over my mobile or the laptop with Google Linux.

I have been religiously following all Ubuntu releases every April and October and am happy that with each relase the software is upgraded. The version I downloaded is the final one, the Mate and Cinnamon versions are beta versions.

Being a Linux fan, I was naturally looking for the new Ubuntu release Ubuntu 23.04 that happens every year during the months of April and October versions .04 and .10 . This year 23.04 (the release in 2023 April month) is called Lunar Lobster. 

Ubuntu 23.04 comes with the latest Gnome 44, better accessibility for the challenged people in society, new QR code facility for sharing wifi code over the network. 

Ubuntu comes with the new Linux kernel 6.2 and new icons and screens.

Ubuntu 23.04 comes bundled with new versions of the following software.

• Python 3.11
• LibreOffice 7.5
• Mozilla Firefox 112
• Shotwell 0.30.17
• Remmina 1.4.29
• Transmission 3.0

A 109 MB Lunar Lobster mini ISO variant is also available with just basic text features which is very useful in cloud settings.

Overall the fact that though with very minor additions and improvements for productivity and gaming apps, the official support will be available only for 9 months reg updates, the new versions of Ubuntu are coming out, it is a sure sign that the software system you get in Ubuntu is the latest update you can get in the world, safest and most secure, up-to-date.
