What is Ubuntu?

What is Ubuntu?


Ubuntu is a free and free operating system based on Linux. The Ubuntu project was launched in order to make Linux and free software a part of the daily life of computer users, and the first stable version was released in October 2004. Today, Ubuntu is the world's most common desktop Linux distribution with over 20 million users. Ubuntu is developed under the sponsorship of Canonical Ltd., owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth.

Canonical offers Ubuntu to all individual and corporate users completely free of charge and aims to generate revenue by supporting organizations seeking technical support. Ubuntu Desktop officially develops and supports users of Ubuntu Server, Ubuntu Touch, Ubuntu TV and Ubuntu for Android variants. It also contributes to the development of Ubuntu-like Kubuntu, Ubuntu GNOME, Edubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, UbuntuKylin, Ubuntu Studio, and Mythbuntu derivatives.

Unlike Windows, the software in Ubuntu is provided in packages/files with the extension * .deb, not * .exe. When a package is selected in the Ubuntu Software Center, all other packages/dependencies required for its operation are selected automatically. Additionally, you can listen to the Ubuntu-related podcast I found on Google.
