There are many different desktop environments available for Linux unlike other operating systems like Windows. Users can choose between desktop environments like Unity, GNOME, and others. Unity is the default desktop for Ubuntu but users can install other environments. GNOME was once very popular but many distributions moved away after it transitioned to a simpler GNOME 3 interface.

2. There’s no one true desktop environment for Linux.
Unlike competing operating systems like Windows,
Linux users have a choice of many different desktop
environments, all with their own styles and strengths.

3. You can install one of these desktop environments
after installing your Linux distribution and switch
between desktop environments from the login
screen. You can also choose to install a Linux
distribution that comes with the desktop
environment. For example, you can get Ubuntu in
many different flavors

4. Unity

should be. In fact, for most users, Unity is probably

Windows 7’s taskbar, Unity has its own identity as a
desktop. However, Unity also includes a variety of
programs from the GNOME desktop. Prior to Unity,
Ubuntu used GNOME — many of these GNOME
programs, like the Nautilus file manager, are still
used on Unity today.

6. GNOME
 GNOME was once the most popular Linux desktop
environment. The GNOME 2.x series was used by
default on Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian, and most
other big Linux distributions. It was a simple, fairly
lightweight desktop environment. After the
transition to the new GNOME 3 with its GNOME
Shell interface, Ubuntu and other distributions
began moving away from GNOME. GNOME 3 was
arguably too simple and stripped-down in terms of
options a
