A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Or Ubuntu could perform every task they need it to and never switch to anything else.
Exactly.
Ubuntu is wide spread, well documented, and was the recommended distro for a lot of things (like steam) for a long time.
I used Ubuntu for a long time, I didnt grow up and move on or any hipster shit like that.. I simply moved to Nobara because it offered a better out of the box experience for me, a gamer, due entirely to all the gaming related stuff being installed as default, at start.
This weird need to feel superior to others over distro choice is weird, and kinda pathetic. Its just stupid and pathetic to be insulting and denigrating others over their distro choice.. And says a lot more about the pathetic nature of the person saying it, then anything they could type.
and yes, I said pathetic 3 times, because thats just how pathetic it is to be like that.
m8 linux is not for the sort of person who gets panicked about options in the first place, there's an alarming disconnect in this trend towards pretending it's just linux's reputation for complexity that puts people off. There are people in this very thread who don't even recognize that apple is fascist hipster bullshit and almost noone who understands why. What's more, I once heard a grown woman argue she shouldn't have a different opinion than her parents because if it was good enough for them it should be good enough for her. People are fucking monkeys, mate. If linux ever hits 10% market share I'll be amazed. Hell, 5 is a stretch...
As Canonical has been doing nothing but worsening the user experience in Ubuntu for end user desktop use I see "performing every task they need it to" as decreasingly likely.
