It's not that I'm a great fan of the #GObject type system and its way to build object-oriented code in C. I know some of the maintainers aren't as well, which I don't consider a surprise given the age and origin of that GObject ecosystem. So I absolutely understand #Canonical considered switching to #Qt for #Unity8, now #Lomiri.
But that's only one part of the story. The other part is I'm now using #GTK based desktop environments almost full time (only some occasions I turn on my old Mac).
Oh, #Ubuntu 17.04 and #Unity… how I miss you dearly.
(Yes I downloaded the 17.04 ISO and put it on a USB stick just to revisit it one more time.)

Por mais que tenha a questão dos Snaps que alguns não curtem, o Ubuntu ainda é o carro chefe pra muitos que querem uma distro Linux robusta e estável. Mas será que a versão com Gnome é a melhor opção do Ubuntu? E se eu te falar que o Unity 8 não morreu? Pois então dá uma conferida nesse vídeo que você vai entender melhor!

Years ago, I remember #Ubuntu demonstrating 'reactive' desktop UIs. #convergance I think it was for #Unity8 (or was it Ubuntu Touch). The main point was that as you resized the window, the interface updated to 'best' fit the available space.
As I snap thunderbird's calendar to half my screen and an email with calendar dates to the other half, I start to think Ubuntu were on to something there...
@manjarolinux @ManjaroARM For everyone else wondering as well: #Lomiri is #Unity8 from #UBports, renamed (by UBPorts). https://ubports.com/de/blog/ubports-blogs-nachrichten-1/post/lomiri-new-name-same-great-unity8-115
It is not bad if sometimes we combine the idea of unity with KDE and create a modern atmosphere of unity.
I created the environment that was in my mind.
I customized the Carl theme so this is a custom plasma style Carl theme.

Ubuntu Touch OTA-13 kommt diese Woche
Ferdinand Thommes
Am Freitag, dem 4. September wollen die Entwickler von UBports OTA-13 freigeben, eine neue Version von Ubuntu Touch für Linux-Smartphones und Tablets. Während der Vorgänger OTA-12 den lange vorbereiteten Umstieg auf Unity 8, das jetzt Lomiri heißt, abschloss, sollte OTA-13 ein eher kleines Release werden, das liegengebliebene Funktionen aus der Entwicklungsphase zu OTA-12 nachreicht. Nach Aussage der Entwickler auf der Webseite wurde OTA-13 am Ende dann doch größer als geplant. https://loma.ml/display/373ebf56-545f-4f79-203e-0d3493768303
