Ubuntu has gotten worse that it seams to was a few years ago. I didn't use it outside of servers. Many don't like the direction that ubuntu goes with snaps. But use whatever distro you want

Welcome to the land of freedom

Oh right I forgot all about snaps. Yeah I haven't used it as a dedicated desktop since probably 2006. It's generally all server usage in the cloud for me these days, which basically means everything is disposable and I couldn't care less about the full OS in general. I really do need to get back on Linux for personal use though. I don't really care for running VMs on windows for my self hosted stuff.

Why would anyone use Ubuntu on a server? Ubuntu is basically Debian unstable + non-free drivers that they tried to get sorta stable in 6 months. That may be ok on a desktop where you can accept some bugs in exchange for newer versions of the software. But why would you not run Debian stable on a server instead?

Maybe 10 years ago when Debian stable got really out-of-date, but that hasn't been true in a looong time. Debian releases much more frequently, much stabler, it has all the goid stuff from Ubuntu backported but none if the bad stuff.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
