A Space Odyssey, so I can call linux. Or, endless story.
Linux is changing ... but are you sure?
Desktop, so changes. Programs that are corrected, spoiled receive new features and functions, but the core of the system linux ... really changing?
Windows of people accustomed to a system that may be hated, but if the new version we do not like, we remain at the old, used, and it is good.
The kind of linux system is the same. Truth?
Well, no.
Versions with long support to the current version far different from being on time.
And it is not worth looking at web browsers, because they WILL updated because ... each update brings improved security. So, by itself, it means that the new version will appear in the version of the LTS. But for other elements of the system will be old. Does this bother anyone? No. Because everything works.
It's a bit as if to ask: is the game of 2014 is better than playing with 2018 years? Seemingly only as four years, but still, the difference will come. If you would only talk about the differences.
Of course, everyone chooses what suits him, but still, you need to be aware of your choice.
I am writing this because linux is linux. Hackneyed phrase, but it still stands.
Each distribution is a different approach to the user, and other community.
Constantly amazes me Minta community because it proved that you do not need to download and install from scratch Linux Mint to have cinnamon. I do not need much to do with Linux Mint Ubuntu to date, only desktop cinammon.
Fedora is obviously a specific community that has surprised users with Ubuntu or other distributions: Why not use their fantastic distribution?
Apparently there's a reason, for example. Fuzziness, no visible organize the community around Fedora.
Really asking themselves whether in Poland are users of openSUSE? I know that there will be some, but if there are a significant group. You know what I mean?
I read this post, you think to yourself: Why am I reading this?
And I wonder: Why am I writing this?
Maybe because linux as a system is unique. Novelty, a spark in the thick darkness.
And if linux will win a significant share of the market?
Sincerely?
No.
No, because it is not representative. There is no single, firmly and insistently advertised distribution, which united to all developers in the world.
Fragmentation into small distributions that makes you a different system will choose an older version of Windows-and rather than play in the tests, whether something works or not, and how it works, and how it supports, and what it's called.
It's a bit like learning a new foreign language. Apparently it is fun, but it's really a hassle to repeat words, sentences, learning phrases, varieties etc. Supposedly it's cool, but ... I do not know what to whom, when ever the person does not go to the country.

Linux Mint 18.1 Serena
Mint ...
Most already think knowing this blog, it will be fat. Oh, it will ... but not so to the end.
Linux Mint has always evoked mixed feelings in me. Because supposedly based on Ubuntu, which itself is based in part on Debian. It is a pity that Debian on any of the distribution is not based, but let's leave it.
But ... If you look at Linux Mint as a person very familiar with Linux, it turns out to be a worthy system. Really. Overlays on the components of the system are really simple and does not involve anyone is thinking about what and how it works. Because after we ch ... "Why?" Few think people know that even the synaptic been converted. Surprised? I was also. But it is true. In the version of the Mint is missing a button. As for the button: select all the updates. Interesting to do when there is a newer version of the package and want to update. Linden. Upgrade Option is ... inactive. Or so it was with me. Thick?
No more.
But, but ... still. So it has to be!!
Do not look at me, you who, or who are reading this.
Because the update is done by another element in the system, man. Synaptic is idi ... in.
Cinnamon.
Creation based on API Gnome3. Respectable, but not outstanding. The only advantage that you run Linux Mint, and you know everything, what and where. Really. Simple animations, the appropriate options. There is no limes. This piece of code from the creators of Minta is quite good. There is a menu, the panel at the bottom ala Windows or KDE, a watch, the icon next to the program list on the menu ... Well everything is. What more could you want.
Unity7 at Cinnamon sag. I wondered: Why?
And the answer is as simple as building cepa Because nobody can impose anything that you changed your habits. Unity7 a panel of icons on the side panel of the menu at the top. And these huge menu with icons. For this all works, as if it had shortness of breath (depending on your laptop or PC). No matter that Unity7 for several years in Ubuntu, and gently przejadło and sick of it still Canonical packed it to the next distribution, rather than come up with something else. Unity8 ... in production. When appears? Who knows that? I think the same Canonical does not know.
But what distinguishes Cinnamon is that it is transferable. And so it can be used in any other distribution. With Unity7 ... Has anyone seen this somewhere other than the desktop in Ubuntu?
But the biggest problem Linux Mint is ... hold on ... old age. And it literally. The reason is obvious, because Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu LTS, so ... no news, only security fixes. And so it is thick to the point that people are sitting on antiquities, perhaps without even knowing it. Really. Because, as I mentioned, most of the users of the Mint, has d ... what and how it works in their system. It has to work. And it works, only that it is old, and that's a different story.
The only thing you are allowed to keep Linux Mint on the surface of a ... community. Ubuntu in this topic is weak. To not write down. Launchpad is o.k, but that only parcels, there are no aspects of integration, and support for example. Unity7. This topic Cinnamon really shines. Ability to add elements of the network that created the users ... Respect.
I do not want to be misunderstood, Linux Mint is not a bad distribution. You install and use. It is that it is based on a fairly outdated as the world linux system, is a different kettle of fish. It has quite convenient and simple programs that do not engage anyone to know their system, which corresponds to some.
Distribution of really good if you care only for the free system with a simple desktop, stable programs.
ps.
You can without any problems to upgrade to the latest version of Ubuntu, but only elements Ubuntu. But still it can be done. What gives? A total of ... nothing.
