   Ubuntu Unity 24.04 LTS is coming, and it's going to use Calamares as the installer.

     @arraybolt3 Back when I first tried Linux, Unity was so bad I went back to Windows.
     Ubuntu has gotten a lot better. I wonder how Unity is now.

     @arraybolt3 My experience was one of lots of bugs and glitches. The concept was there, and I liked it, but the implementation was so bad, as I said, I went back to Windows. (This was early on in my Linux experience; I don't think I was really aware of "distros" and desktops at the time.)

     @golemwire I used it for a while and it was really awesome. It was awesome enough that for a decent while I had my KDE session set up to look and feel quite similar. That was *the most* efficient and enjoyable desktop experience I think I've ever used, and I may go back to it. In fact, I think I'm going to have to now that I've written this :P

     @arraybolt3 I decided to give Unity another chance some years ago, and installed it and ran it. It locked up (Not the OS; Unity froze). Well... 🤷♂️
