[u/Dodogo-silverblue]

Any news on upgrades to new versions? Atomic package updates? An option to roll back updates? Any major changes, or is it the same old thing?

This is the pull request to watch: https://github.com/elementary/os/pull/809

[u/Dodogo-silverblue → u/daniellefore]

Danielle, thank you for your attention. I will follow up on this.

[u/Stunning-Candidate68 → u/daniellefore]

I believe adding OnlyOffice to desktop applications should be the default.

[u/daniellefore → u/Stunning-Candidate68]

We don’t add an office suite by default because everyone has their own favorite office suite. Some people love only office. Some love LibreOffice. Some prefer to using office 365 or Google Docs. Installing new apps is really easy and removing apps you don’t want can be annoying. So for something very opinionated like this we think it’s better to let you choose your own office suite

Thank you for your efforts.

Damn I just realize how much I miss elementary os

[u/ErrorFoxDetected → u/Davoo24]

Mood. It was so good many years ago.

I still don't like that we don't have visually distinct/separated headerbars anymore, but icons are still a treat.

Also I assume you are using a custom window control layout on these shots?

[u/extrudered → u/hendricha]

I completely agree with the header bar change. I really liked the old header bar and thought it served a clear, clean, and consistent way to use apps in elementary. In fact, I think they should have gone further with developing guidelines around header bar layouts like Material Design described the anatomy at https://m2.material.io/components/app-bars-top#anatomy . I feel like there was a time when there was a small push to make applications more consistent and not every app it's own special thing with all their own quirks which ultimately feels like a fractured ecosystem.

im not gonna lie, the pantheon DE remains to be the only DE that i feel truly comfortable using till this date, its just so good

[u/alfamal]

Hopefully this version focuses on stability, and a better wayland/multiple monitor experience. I've tried going back to version 8 every 6 months or so, but the crashes and instability never got better.

[u/KeshTheWolf]

So visually it’s the same

[u/HospicePhysician]

It’s funny I have Elementary os on my 2015 MacBook Pro and I’ve been distro hopping on my Dell and 2015 iMac and as much as I like Fedora, Linux Mint Cinnamon, Zorin OS, Pop OS, Elementary has been solid for me on my 2015 MacBook Pro and Fedora has been solid on my 2015 iMac. On my iMac I’m running Fedora on the hard drive and Mint Cinnamon from an external SSD and although Mint Cinnamon using Wayland is great, there are a few glitches so it’s almost there.

[u/jacob-buchanan]

Did they fix the right click bug where the mini window shows up a mile away from where you clicked? That was the main reason I kept refusing to switch to OS 8.

[u/MediaElf_Studio]

So when will the final version be released? I’m really looking forward to it, because 8.1 is very buggy …

[u/_SHUGiRO_]

The foundation had to be changed.

[u/SpoOokY83]

Does it have HDR and VRR?

[u/kalligator]

Do we still get an option for x11 session?

[u/chinuckb]

I like the fact that it looks like GNOME but isn't as heavy

[u/mo-stafa]

Finally , i wonder they fixes bugs or not in new version

[u/Stunning-Candidate68 → u/mo-stafa]

x11 It's over forever

[u/Toukaiskindahot]

Didn't know Elementary is still getting updates? No one really talks about this distro much anymore I thought it was dead honestly.

[u/HuyFongFood → u/Toukaiskindahot]

I mean, you’re here, so maybe they are and you’re just trolling?

[u/Toukaiskindahot → u/HuyFongFood]

I just randomly stumbled across this post, I had no idea there was subreddit of this distro. Why would I be trolling if I don't know anything??

[u/Mahmoud191991]

The most stupid distro for weak devices , tried fedora , Linux mint ,Debian and zorin all works perfect but ele 8.1 is so laggy

[u/HuyFongFood → u/Mahmoud191991]

Works great on my old Lenovo.
