Linux Mint 18.3 -- aka "Sylvia" -- is here to remind customers that, hey, occasionally Linux can work just a tiny bit more like Apple, Google and Microsoft applications. (Just kidding, do not kill us)
In a site article, the devs touted multiple port enhancements for usability, having an updated program shop as "star of the series". Characteristics elsewhere contained enhanced copies, system accounts and automatic login.
"Although program shops already existed Android and iOS and comparable theories were developed in PCBSD in the moment, Linux Mint was among the initial distributions to present a Software Manager, which supervisor began to show its age," that the distro said. "It had focus and thus a massive amount of work went to revamping it, which makes it seem more contemporary and polishing it to provide an improved user experience"
The program shop, aka "Software Manager", has its own interface cleaned and laid out from GNOME style, in addition to incorporating "popular software programs" like Skype or Minecraft.
Passwords aren't required to navigate apps and authentication for removing or installing 'em is "recalled for just a little while".
The Linux Mint backup tool, meanwhile, got its reorg and performance supports. Especially, it currently runs in user mode (no password needed) and just backs up the home directory into a tar archivefile, rather than requesting a hodgepodge of things.
There is also "Timeshift" for shooting operating system snapshots it is possible to restore from and "System Reports" for assisting "non-experienced users" create core dumps or stack traces for debugging.
The Login Screen enables placing the personal computer for auto-login with no password.
The launch is available today for the Cinnamon and MATE variants of Mint. Since the distro declared in October, in addition, it includes the past KDE variant of this undertaking.
Linux Mint 18.3 will be encouraged until 2021. ®
