Linux Lite 6.6 Easy to Use Free Linux Operating System

Linux Lite 6.6: What's new?

Linux Lite 6.6 may not have a lot of changes, but it seems to focus on useful elements.

Linux Lite is one of the best lightweight Linux distributions that offers a Windows—like interface.

The last time we looked at it was earlier this year, when some significant changes were made to Linux Lite 6.4. Now we have another point release that promises a lot of improvements.

Named one of the largest Linux Lite releases since 2012, this release consists of 1,000 new lines of code. Linux Lite 6.6, running on a reliable Linux 5.15 kernel, is a modest upgrade.

Some highlights include:

Improved Welcome Lite app
Free chatbot A.I.
Support for new languages
 

Improved Greeting Lite

The "Lite Welcome" app has been updated to show the "Install Now" button during Live sessions when Linux Lite is not installed. Now it will check if it is running in a real environment and display the button accordingly.

This will be a convenient way to directly install Linux Lite on your system. The update also added another option to the welcome app; more on that below.

Free chatbot A.I.

There is a new link in the welcome application that allows you to directly access the Linux Lite web chatbot called "Free A.I. Chatbot".

Users can use this to get support related to Linux Lite; although I was hoping it would be a special application built into the system, it is nevertheless interesting to have it.

You can also access it directly using a web browser.

Support for new languages
This made a major contribution to the above lines of code, i.e. Linux Lite 6.6 added support for 22 languages.
