whats the best Ubuntu version in your opinion

[lucasbytegenius]

I like all of them to be honest, except Xubuntu, because I had some problems with it. But that was back in version 9.10 and they've probably fixed those weird toolbar issues by now :P

But anyway, I like Ubuntu, it's really good for starting out, and Kubuntu has the eyecandy which is awesome

According to my personal opinion, I prefer using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS because i felt it had lesser troubles with different Hardware and was much flawless.

I didn't like much of the recent interface changes since Ubuntu 11, so i prefer to stay back.

Xubuntu is best Ubuntu. But if you were talking about the main series of Ubuntu, 10.x is the best.

What makes Xubuntu the best Ubuntu distribution?

Ubuntu 10.04. Plus all the distros based on that. Mainly because that's the version which works with my old laptop. And I can update it with all the latest software. No problem.

I take it you're one of those people who didn't like the new UI? :P

I would say that the best version probably should be the latest version. Usually, when a product is updated, it improves either a little bit, or majorly. Whatever the latest version is, that's the best.

I agree with this post, though some people seem to prefer the older UI in the Ubuntu case. I still go with the latest and greatest though, I'm very flexible

In my honest opinion, all the versions before Unity and gnome3 are better than those after. I just hate all the new fancy design they're trying to implement, for me... all it has to do is "be simple and work".

I have trouble getting various input methods working on Ubuntu out of the box. It assumes that by changing input method, I must also want my environment changed; and by removing an input method, I must also want to remove that environment -- which are good assumptions, really, just not for me. Unfortunately I need to switch between several input methods on daily basis.

I just switched to Xubuntu. Will give it a couple of days to see how I like Xfce. (By the way, does anyone know why Xubuntu installation comes with two sessions, Xubuntu and Xfce? What's the difference? I thought the "X" in Xubuntu means Xfce already?) I will also give Kubuntu a try because I heard it is most easily configurable as is.

I'll prefer that Xubuntu 10.14 has been best version what have been released
