Ubuntu 26.04 LTS (Resolute Raccoon) has been released, featuring Linux kernel 7.0, GNOME 50 with Wayland-only support, hardware-backed TPM 2.0 disk encryption, improved Nvidia driver setup, and several new apps rewritten in Rust (Papers PDF viewer, Showtime video player, Lupe image viewer). System requirements now list 6 GB RAM (up from 4 GB). Notable changes include a new security center app, sudo-rs replacing sudo, a text size slider for accessibility, and Pipewire distributed as a snap package. The video also addresses common criticisms of Ubuntu around Canonical's commercial involvement and the snap packaging system.
