Lubuntu Is Finally Preparing To Switch From LXDE To LXQt
![OPERATING SYSTEMS](/assets/categories/operatingsystems.webp)
LXQt is the desktop environment that's been brewing for a while now as a culmination of the LXDE and Razor-qt efforts. Lubuntu has been conservative in switching over to this newer desktop effort, but now it's looking like it may finally happen soon.
Simon Quigley on the behalf of the Lubuntu release team has laid out plans for Lubuntu Next Images for those wishing to begin helping test the LXQt Ubuntu flavor. There is also now a lubuntu-qt-desktop meta-package to represent the new spin.
