Key Points For This Linux Operating System...
1. Performance Improvement To Nemo File Manager
One of the performance improvements in the Nemo file manager is theway it handles the thumbnails
You might not have realized but thumbnail generations takes considerablesystem resources (and disk space as well)
Try opening a folder with a few thousands images and you’ll notice thatCPU consumption goes up
In Linux Mint 20, the aim is to prioritize content and navigation and to delaythumbnails as much as possible
This means that the content of folders shows up with generic icons beforethe thumbnails are rendered
It won’t be pleasing to the eyes, but you’ll notice the improvementin performance
2. Two Refreshed Colour Variants
By default Linux Mint has a green/mint accent. There are a few morecolour accents available
Linux Mint 20 refreshes the pink and blue colours in its kitty
The new accent colours AreLinux Mint Aquaand the newLinux Pink
3. No Nndue Preference To Snap Packages
Ubuntu 20.04 is putting snap packages before the usual apt packages
In fact, if you install Chromium browser in Ubuntu 20.04 using aptcommand, it installs a snap version automatically
Linux Mint team is clearly not happy with it, and Mint 20 does not not shipwith any snaps or snapd installed
It also forbids APT from using snapd
You can still install snap packages manually, on your own
It just won’t happen with apt
4. Sharing Files Across Network Becomes Simple With This New Tool
Linux Mint 20 features a new GUI tool or easily sharing files on thrlocal network without any additional configuration
New tool for sharing files across the network
5. Better Desktop Integration For Electron Apps
This is an open source framework that allows to build cross-platformdesktop applications using web technologies
Some people call it the lazy approach because the application runs ontop of Chromium web browser
However, this allows developers to easily make their applicationsavailable for Linux (and macOS)
Linux Mint 20 has better support for Electron applications with improvedintegration of system tray and desktop notifications
6. Fractional Scaling With Improved Multi-Monitor Support
Fractional scaling arrives in Linux Mint 20 that too with multi-monitorsupport
If you have a combination of HiDPI and non-HiDPI monitorsyou should be able to select the different resolution, refresh rateand different fractional scaling for each of them
The login screen lets you stretch the background across multiplemonitors in Mint 20
7. Improved Nvidia Optimus Support
In Mint 20, the Nvidia prime applet shows the GPU rendererYou can also select which card to switch to straight fromits menu in the system tray
Switch between GPUs
You can also use NVIDIA “On-Demand”. In this mode, the Intel cardwill be used to render the session
Compatible applications like video player or video editors can beopened using Nvidia GPU from the application menu
Run an application with NVIDIA GPU
8. No More 32 Bit
Though Ubuntu 18.04 dropped 32-bit ISO 2 years ago, Linux Mint 19series kept on providing 32-bit ISO to download and installThis changes in Linux Mint 20
There is no 32-bit version of Linux Mint 20 anymore
This is because 32-bit support completely disappears fromUbuntu 20.04
What else?
A lot of visual changes come with the release of Cinnamon 4.6 desktop version
There are a few ‘under the hood’ changes coming from Ubuntu 20.04such as Linux Kernel 5.4, removal of Python 2 supportinclusion of Wireguard VPN etc
