best Ubuntu release.
Long Term Support releases typically focus more on conservative software refinement than they do on major changes. Traditionally this isn’t a bad thing, and people opt to ride an LTS release for the reassurance of ongoing support
Not so with the “Bionic Beaver.”
For those upgrading from 16.04 Ubuntu 18.04 is arguably the single biggest Ubuntu release in recent memory.
