I said "good riddance" to Apple and got a new Linux-first laptop, then proceeded to note down my first impressions.

Having used Ubuntu and Linux for 20 years, and having had a stint period with Apple, I decided to stick with Linux for good.

Is this how Ubuntu currently looks or is this not default?

There's usually a bar at the top, otherwise it looks like this. The dock on the left is from the "dash to dock" Gnome shell extension, which ships with Ubuntu

Yeah, indeed the top bar is amiss, because this is my secondary screen. But like I say in the post, a did very few tweaks until I go this sexy look. Ubuntu's default looks and feels great ATM.

@Schabrackentapier @john_fisherman Not the default, Ubuntu looks somewhat different out of the box. I like the customizations here though :)
