Ubuntu MATE 17.04 Released

We’re totally over the bloody moon to announce Ubuntu MATE 17.04. This is our favourite release of Ubuntu MATE so far and, we believe, a real return to form. Ubuntu MATE 16.10 was a transitional release, in every sense, and 17.04 concludes the upheaval of migrating to GTK3+. This has been a release focused on refining the distro and sweating the details.

choto mate

why they are still using that crapy green? its really disgusting

Not as bad as your face

prolly because the mate herb is green

Why is everything so big and bulgy in that UI?

that's easily fixed.

orange was waaaay worse, what color would you suggest?

>best DE
thats not XFCE

why should i upgrade from 16.04 again?

absolutely disguesting

That typeface is unforgivable

desktop thread?

That's the original Ubuntu typeface you fucking poofter

I didn't know mate was a fork of gnome 2

it looks pretty damn sexy
I am going to give it a go in a vm for a while
thank you for the advice

Spelled KDE wrong

>still no wayland
Into the trash

nah I think I spelt Xfce wrong

>xfce
gtfo

>best de is not XFCE
exactly

I am waiting for AMD drivers

>migrating to GTK3+

Awesome! Now I don't even have to entertain the idea of installing Ubuntu Mate.

>no wayland
Sticking to GNOME 3 then.

>beta testing for free

>Michael Tunnel from TuxDigitial contributed retouched art assets for the Ubuntu MATE themes including scaled variants for when we are ready to go HiDPI.

STILL no hidpi support??? WTF is taking so long??? I guess I'll have to wait another year to try this DE.

You wouldn't know a professional typeface if it bit you in ass, you peasant!

Nice background; what's that wallpaper from?

well I like it.

Faggot.

>thats not XFCE
Fuck off, mate and xfce are practically the same shit.
Except as of now, mate is gtk3 and xfce is still working on it.

you seem mad. baka
it's ok, you can like it and use it even if it's shit, just don't post it on the Internet

I know right? It's not XFCE its Xfce.
>Fuck off, mate and xfce are practically the same shit.
wrong
Mate has no decent plugins and is a lot less flexible than XFCE.
no idea but here it is

>no idea but here it is
Thanks user.

>user.
well w/e

np bby

go ahead, call the mods

I wish they would merge their projects instead of porting their DEs to gtk3.

get in the chamber tripfaggot

I threw up in my mouth a little

Porting over to gtk3 is a good thing. It addresses many fault with gtk2, but they should merge their projects, especially since lxde is a thing.

here it is with numix, I find it cute

Where is it? Suicide is my only option mate.

my name is AUGUSTO user.

and I'm from Chile.

I'd never visit the US, too many racists there.

How are you doing.

show me your menu pls the only thing stopping me from trying mate is that awful 90's style menu it has which can be replaced but there really is nothing to replace it with.

Is there something like whiskermenu?
Chile? I heard nice things about you guys, I have a qt chilean friend as well. Dominican Republic here, there are racists everywhere especially in the Caribbean where we're all catholic conservatives.

this is uglier than your mom's vagina

there you go

What is the actual difference between Xfce and MATE? Like one feature that is exclusive to one or the other?

datamation.com/open-source/choosing-desktops-mate-vs-xfce-1.html

not too different.

Is xfeces even in development anymore?

They're pretty much the same. xfce and its programs are more modular/standalone and mate and its suite are more cohesive/integrated, plus it has more software and its programs are more featureful compared to its xfce counterparts.

Dude weed LMAO

Give me one reason why I should use this.

Does it still have screen tearing and non-removable graphical glitches?

all MATE themes look like a piece of shit
Fucking linux mint autism

good ol' gnome2 days

yes

dumb spic nigger

Washed out brown with purple wallpaper

Haha nice. I probably shouldn't hate on mate. It would be my second pick after xfce.

That's the point.
It's not a piece of shit like XFCE.

looks like clearlooks with tango icons from 2007

delete

Because you haven't learned to customize it.

Is there a single MATE theme that isn't utterly awful looking?

I seriously haven't seen a desktop picture that wasn't just fuckugly.

numix

>It's not a piece of shit like XFCE.
"I'm too stupid to work Xfce" I can get Xfce working how I want in 5 minutes or less if my internet is good.

Disgusting
I wish there was a new remake of ubuntu 8.04 theme
in fact i might make it myself on a github

Just tried this on my old Vostro laptop.
>Screen brightness isn't working.
>System locked up when I was tweaking the UI.

Welp, so much for that.

Numix as the other user said and Arc
