“Peppermint OS One made quite a splash when I reviewed
it. Many people had never heard of it, and there was a lot of
curiosity about a web-oriented remaster of Ubuntu. Some time has
passed and there’s a related version that has been released. This
new distro is called Peppermint Ice. Why is it called Ice? Well
read on to find out. Please note that development of Peppermint OS
One will continue. Peppermint Ice is a separate distro and the
Peppermint developers will be supporting both versions. The
developers got a lot of requests from the Peppermint OS One
community to do a version with Chromium as the browser and thus
Peppermint Ice was born.“What’s New In This Release
“The biggest difference between Peppermint OS One and Peppermint
Ice is the inclusion of a new Site Specific Browser (SSB) written
by Peppermint Ice developer Kendall Weaver. Ice is the name of the
SSB, and it uses Chromium (the default browser in Peppermint Ice)
to run web applications. Using an SSB, instead of running
applications in a tabbed browser, for example, helps provide
greater stability and uses screen space more effectively.”
