It\u2019s a great Linux distribution to start with\u2014and it\u2019s even a great Linux distribution to keep using after you\u2019re more experienced, if you\u2019re happy with it.<\/p>\n<p>Ubuntu\u00a0is user-friendly in a lot of ways. It offers a simple desktop and easy installer. It provides a checkbox during the installation process that will automatically install graphics drivers as well as\u00a0various codecs you\u2019d need for multimedia support. There\u2019s an \u201cAdditional Drivers\u201d tool that will detect closed-source drivers that might be necessary to get all your hardware working and easily install them for you.\u00a0This additional software isn\u2019t always as easy to get on other Linux distributions.<\/p>\n<p>Ubuntu\u2019s popularity means it has a large community that\u2019s willing to help. if you encounter a problem or have a question, you can generally search the web and you\u2019ll find someone else who\u2019s had the same problem or question along with an answer, because so many people use Ubuntu.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-770105\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/ubuntu-software.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Ubuntu Software\" width=\"650\" height=\"500\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This huge community also means a lot of available software, both in Ubuntu\u2019s standard software repositories\u00a0and third-party software repositories known as PPAs. Third-party software vendors make sure they support Ubuntu.\u00a0Applications like Google Chrome and Microsoft Teams officially support Ubuntu, while they may not be supported on smaller Linux distributions. Ubuntu offers an easy way to get the latest NVIDIA graphics drivers\u00a0if you like, while these can\u00a0be more work to get\u00a0on\u00a0other Linux distributions.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll even get long-term support if you choose an \u201cLong Term Support\u201d (LTS)\u00a0release, which we recommend. LTS releases are supported with security updates for five years from their release date, and Ubuntu releases a new LTS version every two years. This means you\u2019ll only need to perform a major upgrade every two years, and you can hold off for five years if you prefer. Not all Linux distributions offer such long support times.<\/p>\n<p>Ubuntu has had its share of controversy. In 2017, it upset some fans by announcing the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/insights.ubuntu.com\/2017\/04\/05\/growing-ubuntu-for-cloud-and-iot-rather-than-phone-and-convergence\/\">abandonment of Ubuntu phone<\/a>, the vision of \u201cconvergence\u201d, and the new Unity 8 and Mir desktop and display server. But the project\u2019s abandoning of Unity 8 and Mir and future shift towards more standard Linux technologies like the GNOME desktop and Wayland display server means that Ubuntu should become even more rock-solid as it stops reinventing the wheel and builds on top of what the rest of the open source community is doing.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 661px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-772518 size-full\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/lubuntu-desktop-application-menu.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Lubuntu 20.04 desktop application menu\" width=\"661\" height=\"500\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lubuntu 20.04<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Ubuntu offers a variety of different \u201cflavors\u201d, which come with different desktop environments and applications over the same underlying Ubuntu operating system.

For example, if you have an older computer you want to revive, you might want to give <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/lubuntu.me\/\">Lubuntu<\/a> a go (pictured above).

Linux Mint is based partially on Ubuntu, but uses the Cinnamon, MATE, or Xfce desktops instead. These are more traditional Linux desktop environments complete with a taskbar with a window list and pop-up applications menu. Quite a few people are just looking for a polished desktop that doesn\u2019t try to do anything new, and Linux Mint\u2019s Cinnamon and MATE desktops deliver this.<\/p>\n<p>If that sounds what you want\u2014or if you try Ubuntu and decide you\u2019d prefer\u00a0a more traditional desktop environment\u2014look to Linux Mint.<\/p>\n<p>Linux Mint used to be a bit more different from Ubuntu, offering various media codecs bundled for a more convenient user experience. But Ubuntu now makes those much easier to install, and Linux Mint installs them separately (but in a similarly easy way). And, since Mint is based on Ubuntu, you can still get a ton of applications and support for it.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fedora_All_About_Bleeding_Edge_Open_Source_Software\"><\/span><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" name=\"autotoc_anchor_2\">Fedora: All About Bleeding Edge, Open Source Software<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-772541\" data-pagespeed-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/fedora-linux-welcome.png?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Fedora Linux 35 welcome screen\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" src=\"\/pagespeed_static\/1.JiBnMqyl6S.gif\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cTry Ubuntu or Mint\u201d is pretty common advice.

Unlike the others, Fedora is passionate about only including open-source software. It doesn\u2019t include closed-source hardware drivers, for example. You have to find those yourself after installation if you require them.<\/p>\n<p>The Fedora developers\u00a0also work more directly with open source projects like GNOME, making fewer changes and just shipping you the latest, bleeding-edge software from these projects. This distro gives you the latest and greatest stuff from the community.<\/p>\n<p>Fedora\u2019s desktop image is now known as \u201cFedora Workstation\u201d and pitches itself to developers who need to use Linux, providing easy access to development features and software.

Fedora is the opposite\u2014the project releases new versions approximately every six months, and each release will be supported with security updates for approximately every thirteen months. You\u2019ll have to upgrade to at least every second release of Fedora to stay supported. If you want a free version of Red Hat\u2019s slower-moving Red Hat Enterprise Linux, use <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.centos.org\/\">CentOS<\/a>\u00a0instead.
