About Ubuntu Unity
Ubuntu Unity is the official flavor that resurrects Unity, the desktop Canonical built and shipped as Ubuntu's face for years before returning to GNOME. Unity's design remains instantly recognizable: a launcher docked on the left edge, a global menu bar that saves vertical space, and the HUD, which lets users type to search an application's menus instead of hunting through them. The revival began as a community remix led by a very young developer and earned official flavor status, keeping the desktop alive atop current Ubuntu bases with the shared archive, APT, and the standard April and October rhythm. It serves two audiences: people who genuinely preferred Unity's ergonomics, especially on widescreen laptops, and the curious who missed that era of Ubuntu. The workflow still has sincere defenders. An OpenFactory browser VM is the least disruptive way to revisit it or meet it for the first time.
All Ubuntu Unity releases and desktopsWhat happens when you press Try now
The button opens the OpenFactory console in a new tab and boots a fresh Ubuntu Unity virtual machine from OpenFactory's verified source media. The session renders directly in the browser, so there is nothing to download and nothing to install on your computer.
Each visit gets its own machine with a fresh overlay over an immutable base image. Files, settings, and desktop changes behave normally inside the session and are discarded when it ends, so every visitor starts from the same clean Ubuntu Unity 24.04 Unity.
How Unity behaves in a browser VM
Unity is the shell Ubuntu shipped between 2010 and 2017, with its left-hand launcher and global menu. Community releases keep the layout alive for people who preferred it.
Questions about this target
Is this an official Ubuntu Unity image?
Yes. Launches boot from OpenFactory's verified copy of official Ubuntu Unity media with the Unity desktop. The catalog records where each source came from and when it was verified, and visitor sessions never modify the stored image.
Do changes persist between sessions?
No. Every launch runs on a fresh overlay over an immutable base image, and the machine state is discarded when the session ends. No visitor sees another visitor's changes, and every session starts from the same clean Ubuntu Unity 24.04 Unity.
Can I get a customized Ubuntu Unity instead of the stock demo?
Yes. The OpenFactory builder turns this release into your own image: pick packages, services, users, and hardening, then build it, test it in a browser VM, and download the result for real hardware.
