Ubuntu Summit 25.10 going online-only is a regression. Canonical still flies staff worldwide twice a year, but volunteers who build Ubuntu get sidelined with a livestream. Bring back in-person Summits.

Ubuntu Studio runs on volunteers and monthly costs: hosting, infrastructure, ISP bills, upkeep, and development.
If Ubuntu Studio helped you, toss a coffee’s worth our way. Don’t just leave it to someone else. ubuntustudio.org/contribute ☕💻 #UbuntuStudio

We have had a top panel layout for the past 13+ years. Is it time to change? We're considering it for 26.04 LTS.
Let us know. A poll is active on Ubuntu Discourse. See more details at ubuntustudio.org/2025/12/com…
