I have some computers which only operate on Unity 2D because of their hardware, so I rely on Unity 2D and Ubuntu 12.04. In the future I could use Gnome Shell, I could use Unity 3D via llvmpipe (which is real slow) or even LXDE, but I just love Unity 2D and its speed. Is it ever coming back for newer Ubuntu releases?
Tell me more

The only way unity 2d will ever come back, is as part of petition, etc. It is such a shame to see it go, maybe a community version might come about? |

Unity 2D is definitely deprecated now in favour of standard Unity via llvmpipe. It's not coming back. Performance of llvmpipe may, however, continue to improve over time. I couldn't guarantee that it will ever match the speed of Unity 2D, but time will tell. |
