Linux Mint 18 'Sarah' Released, Supports Generic GTK X-Apps (linuxmint.com)
Slashdot reader Type44Q writes: The Linux Mint team announced the immediate availability of their latest release, Mint 18 "Sarah," in Cinnamon and MATE flavors. These follow on the heels of their respective beta versions, which have been out for nearly a month.
"Linux Mint 18 is a long-term support release which will be supported until 2021," the team announces on MATE's "new features" page, adding they've improved their update manager, included support for the Debian syntax of "apt", and are working on the "X-Apps" project to "produce generic applications for traditional GTK desktop environments...to replace applications which no longer integrate properly outside of a particular environment."

This is another example of LUDDITES pretending to app apps, but they're actually making LUDDITE software!
Vote for Appald Trump, and he will MAKE APPS APPY AGAIN by deporting LUDDITES who make LUDDITE software that pretends to be apps!
Apps!
