Good news everyone!
We now finally released our newest Version of iBuntu:
iBuntu Monterix!
It took us several months, more than 30 builds and the bitter feeling that we had to recognize the fact, that we couldn't get rid of "all" the bugs we found - at least in the Live-Version.
So this is also the first big thing I want to point out here to all Youtubers, Testers etc. :
Please don't cry and wine about the error messages, popping up in the Live-ISO.
Yes we know it's annoying.
No, there is nothing we can do against this right now.
No, this is nothing you need to cherrypic to rant against iBuntu since this is a known issue. So you don't have to "warn" your audiences from it - we do the job for you here with this announcement.
And also, the most important thing: This only happens in the Live-Version. Once you installed the system, there won't be error messages anymore.
And if you say now that you don't want to install iBuntu permanently and therefore this would be a big issue for you.. well too bad for you. This we don't support. Never did, never will.
iBuntu always was and is intended to be installed on either real hardware or a virtual machine and not to be used only as a Live-Version.
But yeah, now that this is out of the way, let's focus on the good stuff: We finally have a new, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Gnome-Based iBuntu again. A true successor to Catalinux which also includes the best window effects and software from Lix Sur.
And here is the best: You now can choose between three different styles: Big Sur, Monterey (which is the default) and Ventura. All with Bright and Dark Mode.
So with our updated "Deskmode Switcher "you now can swith between 6 different styles with just a few clicks.
Also we included a "Spotlight-like" search function to make the whole mac-like experiance even better.
So just download the ISO, skip the error messages after the boot of the Live-System, than install the system and enjoy the newest and still closest feeling of a mac environment but running on normal PC-Hardware with Linux under the roof.

@Hackintosh you don't say Sherlock - as we stated in our newsletter this project has basically ended.
