Among the various Linux distributions, Ubuntu stands out as one of the favourites in the gaming industry. With the recent launch of Ubuntu 24.04, developers across the industry are leveraging its latest features and enhancements to deliver improved performance and optimization.
Some improvements provided by Ubuntu 24.04 include significant security updates with changes to the way Personal Package Archives (PPAs) are managed, improved handling of unprivileged user namespaces, and enhanced AppArmor profiles to better control application permissions.
