Unity is finally coming to Windows 10

Unity on Windows 10

The famous Ubuntu desktop has finally arrived in Windows 10, but at the moment it is not an official arrival nor does it even make Microsoft's hated Explorer disappear. In early August, Microsoft will release a major update for Windows 10; an update that will reach all Microsoft users the possibility of using the Ubuntu terminal and some apps and applications via terminal.

But this does not mean or did not mean that Ubuntu desktops or other functions reached Windows 10. At least that is what both Canonical and Microsoft said. But now we have seen how they have become confused. A user called Guerra24 has managed to run Ubuntu Unity on Windows 10. A version that has not been easy but at least it has shown that inserting the Ubuntu terminal in Windows 10 can make it possible for us to install any Linux desktop in Windows 10. This is interesting and important because it will not only make Unity can be installed on Microsoft systems, but also opens the door to the possibility of customizing Windows 10 as we wantFrom the window manager to the terminal applications, we go what would currently be a Gnu / Linux distribution or an official Ubuntu flavor. Thus, an official flavor of Windows and Ubuntu could even be created in which both operating systems were even more united.

But this timing has more interesting things. We can change the operating system and make our Ubuntu use Microsoft's Explorer, something interesting that would make Microsoft users feel better about Ubuntu since its graphical interface would hardly change. In any case Guerra24 has published in your github repository a guide and all the necessary software for Ubuntu Unity to be on Windows 10, something that will spread the Ubuntu desktop more on Windows 10 computers Do not you think?

    A whole "rice with mango" as we say in these parts,
    BUT WHAT IS IMPORTANT is to experiment "either we invent or we err", there is no other way. The only constant is change.

    Instead of working on that they should work on giving 100% compatibility between MicrosoftOffice and LibreOffice, which is a substantial problem.

    And is Microsoft going to allow occupying windows tools in Ubuntu? this is an ordinary ... They do not provide compatibility and instead Canonical offers to occupy the terminal.

    Canonical is destroying the possibilities that free software had in the face of proprietary options ... good move, Microsoft ¬¬

    this is the way to end ubuntu that people buy more windows where they can use ubuntu and they are fooling around the world

    No matter how much mix they make, windows will continue to be windows and ubuntu will continue to be ubuntu.

    I am clear about which one I prefer.

    GNU / Linux will always be my decision.
