Kubuntu 22.04 LTS Arrives with KDE Plasma 5.24
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS has finally been released. So, you can expect all of its official flavors to offer the latest and greatest soon after that.
|
||
|
||
And, the KDE flavour, i.e., Kubuntu 22.04 LTS is now also available to download!
|
||
|
||
You should expect all the [feature additions of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS][1] and specially tailored improvements for the Kubuntu 22.04 release.
|
||
|
||
Let me briefly emphasize the key changes.
|
||
|
||
### Kubuntu 22.04 LTS: What’s New?
|
||
|
||
The primary highlight of the release is KDE Plasma 5.24 LTS.
|
||
|
||
In addition to that, you should also notice updates to KDE apps and other pre-installed applications. Let’s take a look:
|
||
|
||
#### KDE Plasma 5.24
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
KDE Plasma 5.24 features an updated breeze theme, and several visual improvements. It is a long-term supported version that should get updates until Plasma 6 releases.
|
||
|
||
You had the option to use KDE Neon or Arch Linux, or a few other distros to experience KDE Plasma 5.24. Finally, Kubuntu is here as a mainstream distro featuring the latest and greatest from KDE.
|
||
|
||
You can learn more about [KDE Plasma 5.24][3] changes in our previous coverage.
|
||
|
||
If you are moving away from GNOME-based Ubuntu, you may want to check out our article on [KDE Plasma vs GNOME][4] to get some insights before making the switch.
|
||
|
||
#### Default Browser as Firefox Snap
|
||
|
||
Firefox 99 snap is the default browser. In case you’re curious, Mozilla is working with Canonical to quickly push updates and conveniently maintain the browser using the snap package.
|
||
|
||
So, it only makes sense to keep it as the default. But, you can always install the deb package if you do not prefer using Snap.
|
||
|
||
#### GNOME-like Overview
|
||
|
||
With KDE Plasma 5.24, you get the ability to use a feature similar to GNOME’s Activities overview.
|
||
|
||
You can browse through your virtual desktops and windows at a glance with its help.
|
||
|
||
To access it, you can press the Super key + W, and here’s how it should look:

|
||
|
||
#### Improvements to Discover
|
||
|
||
![][6]
|
||
|
||
The software center for KDE i.e. Discover has received some upgrades. One of the neat additions includes the ability to prevent removing anything that is critical to the system’s operation.
|
||
|
||
You should notice a warning when you try to remove something that could break the system.
|
||
|
||
If you prefer Flatpak, you can now open locally downloaded Flatpak packages and install it using the Flatpak repository URI.
|
||
|
||
#### Fingerprint Support
|
||
|
||
KDE Plasma 5.24 finally adds the support for fingerprint authentication. You can conveniently add up to 10 fingerprints and use them to unlock or authenticate something.
|
||
|
||
#### Other Improvements
|
||
|
||
![][7]
|
||
|
||
In addition to the major upgrades, you should expect subtle changes across the platform along with app updates that include:
|
||
|
||
* LibreOffice 7.3
|
||
* KDE Gear 21.12
|
||
* Dolphin
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
To explore more about the changes, you can refer to the [official release notes][8].
|
||
|
||
### Download Kubuntu 22.04 LTS
|
||
|
||
You can head to the official download page to get the latest ISO or choose to wait to receive the upgrade prompt.
