Ubuntu 24.10 To See More Polishing, NVIDIA Wayland By Default & New Welcome Wizard


Oliver Smith who is serving as the Interim Engineering Director for the Ubuntu Desktop team at Canonical has shared some roadmap plans around Ubuntu 24.10

With this being the first post-LTS release following last month's Ubuntu 24.04 Long Term Support, they are more free to innovate this cycle and they have a lot of great plans for enhancing the Linux desktop experience. Canonical wants to redesign their welcome wizard to improve the initial Ubuntu desktop experience moving forward. Some other Ubuntu 24.10 work items include continued work on the immutable Ubuntu Core Desktop, 20th anniversary Easter Eggs, continued Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) enhancements, and more.
