If nothing happens, and at the moment there is no news that makes us think otherwise, Ubuntu 25.04, of which a beta is already available , will arrive next Thursday, April 17. As a general rule, everything related to the next version should take place after this date, but this time it has not been like that. Canonical has published on the social network X the codename for Ubuntu 25.10 , and I have to admit that the animal is one of the friendliest I have ever seen as a mascot for the Canonical system.
The name will be Questing Quokka . It is an Australian marsupial from the macropod family (like kangaroos and wallabies), and is famous for its smiling face. It lives mainly on some islands in Western Australia, such as Rottnest Island. It is a small, furry, nocturnal, and herbivorous animal. It has become famous on social media because it seems to always be happy, hence its nickname "the happiest animal in the world . "
Regarding the name, it doesn't seem to have a Spanish translation, and there's more information about it on Wikipedia —which, while we know it may not be very reliable, has information on almost everything. The adjective "Questing" can have different interpretations, such as "one who is searching," "explorer," "on a mission," or "adventurer." For me, what makes the most sense is that it's an exploring or adventuring quokka , but we'll have to wait and see the wallpaper to get a clearer idea of what the official mascot will look like.
Days after the release of Plucky Puffin, the start of development for Ubuntu 25.10 will be announced. Shortly after, the first Daily Build will be released, and from there, we'll move on to October, when the next version is scheduled for release. Among its features, the main release will almost certainly use GNOME 49 and a kernel that will be around Linux 6.16 or Linux 6.17.
