Ubuntu hasn’t had the best reputation among Linux users over the past few years with some even going so far as to call it ‘boring’. If you’ve been hesitant to try it out, then hold on to your seats- Ubuntu 16.04 ‘Xenial Xerus’ is not only an exciting release, but one that has the potential to be a game changer for the Linux ecosystem.
I don’t think I’ve been more excited for a new release of Ubuntu since I first started using Linux, many years ago.
