Ubuntu Studio switching to KDE Plasma |
 |
Following the release of Ubuntu Studio 20.04 the project's developers announced they would be switching their default desktop from Xfce to KDE Plasma. Ubuntu Studio is unusual in that it is a community flavour of Ubuntu whose purpose is not tied to a specific desktop environment, but rather focuses on making specific tasks easier. The team commented on the move to the Plasma desktop: "Future versions of Ubuntu Studio, beginning with 20.10, will be using the KDE Plasma Desktop Environment by default. Plasma has proven to have better tools for graphics artists and photographers, as can be seen in Gwenview, Krita, and even the file manager Dolphin. Additionally, it has Wacom tablet support better than any other desktop environment. It has become so good that the majority of the Ubuntu Studio team is now using Kubuntu with Ubuntu Studio added-on via Ubuntu Studio Installer as their daily driver. With so many of us using Plasma, the timing just seems right to focus on a transition to Plasma with our next release." |
