The Ubuntu Budgie project has announced the launch of Ubuntu Budgie 24.10 which will be supported for nine months. The new version focuses on polishing the Budgie desktop and preparing for the transition to Wayland. "Our default layout has been revised to ensure a smooth transition later to our Wayland offering. The X11 plank dock has been dropped. We have now the budgie-desktop dock styled with our Pocillo theme. The top-bar defaults to a dark bar theme. We now support the Apple image format .heif – such images can be seen through gThumb, Nemo and can be set as a wallpaper via budgie-control-center We now support the Jpeg-xl format .jxl – again such images can be seen through gThumb, Nemo and can be set as a wallpaper via budgie-control-center In 24.04 external DEB packages were installed via gdebi; gdebi has now been dropped in favour of the updated snap-store that handles side-loading of DEB packages. Due to Tilix receiving very little maintenance bugs are creeping in without any resolution upstream." Additional information is provided in the project's release announcement.

David Mohammed has announced the release of Ubuntu Budgie 20.10, the latest version of the project that integrates the Budgie desktop into the underlying Ubuntu system: "For 20.10 your Ubuntu Budgie team has concentrated on paper-cuts - tidying up the rough areas reported by you our community. Shuffler has had some nice touches including the funky-sounding sticky neighbours and also a full CLI to allow the tinkers to fully customise their application arrangements. Our application menu now leverages the search facility to find the various parts of GNOME Settings. Many icons previously displayed are now stripped out allowing quicker visual access to applications. Also, look out for the optional rollover capability now in the category view. We now include a full Mac-like makeover using the fabulous Mojave theme and icons though a click of a button. Also, we have developed an optional applet to replace the menu to present a full-screen application icons display based on a new project called lightpad."
