    With feature freeze now in effect and UI freeze creeping up, a huge drop of changes just hit the daily builds of Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. New versions of the default Yaru GTK, Shell and icon themes are included. Nautilus is now a full-width ‘cabinet’ drawer rather than an inset folder.

    Why is Linux considered the best of all?🤔

    Linux is one of the most reliable operating systems(OS) due to the fact that Linux and Unix-based OS code is reviewed by a huge number of developers constantly. On Linux, there is no need for an anti-virus since anyone has access to the source code. This is because it is open-source and thus bugs can be fixed rapidly and easily.
