Linux Mint 20.1 is now available (https://www.ghacks.net/2021/01/08/linux-mint-20-1-long-term-support-release-is-out/).
The first stable release of Linux Mint in 2021 is available in the three flavors Cinnamon (https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_ulyssa_cinnamon.php), MATE (https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_ulyssa_mate.php) and Xfce (https://www.linuxmint.com/rel_ulyssa_xfce.php). The new version of the Linux distribution is based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Linux kernel 5.4...
- Linux Mint 20.1 comes with a unified file system that sees certain directories being merged with their counterparts in /usr, e.g. /bin merged with /usr/bin, /lib merged with /usr/lib for compatibility purposes...
- The developers have added an option to turn websites into desktop applications in the new version [using the new Web App manager]... Web apps behave like desktop programs for the most part; they start in their own window and use a custom icon, and you find them in the Alt-Tab interface when you use it. Web apps can be pinned and they are found in the application menu after they have been created.
