Η team developer of Linux Mint announced its release Linux Mint 20. The new version is based on Ubuntu 20.04 and will provide support for the next five years.
The new release is available in three flavors: Cinnamon, MATE and Xfce. Linux Mint 20 offers support for different scales on HiDPI screens, includes a new tool called Warpinator for sharing files on the local network, and the welcome box provides quick access to the desktop color change.
“The star of Linux Mint 20 is a new one application called the Warpinator. 10 years ago, Linux Mint 6 introduced a tool called “Giver” that could share files on the local network. Without a server or complex settings local computers will automatically see each other. So you could simply copy and paste files from one to the other. Warpinator is a reboot of Giver. No more FTP, NFS, Samba settings needed for transportation files between two computers and it's a real shame to use external media (Internet services, USB sticks, external hard drives) just to share files when there is a local network that can do just that.”
