My Pop!_OS system has never shown me ads for Candy Crush.
I just installed Ubuntu server on my little home server which has faithfully run Windows 10 Pro since it came out. I didn’t want to deal with the ads on Windows 11. I ssh into the Ubuntu install and there is an ad in the terminal!
you mean the "longer security updates with ubuntu pro" thing?
No. I got that too. I’m talking about:
“ Strictly confined Kubernetes makes edge and IoT secure. Learn how MicroK8s just raised the bar for easy, resilient and secure K8s cluster deployment. https://ubuntu.com/engage/secure-kubernetes-at-the-edge”
You see this when you ssh in??? I’ve never heard of this. What Ubuntu version is this?
It’s part of the motd, I’ve seen it too.
Also see this on my 20.04 LTS servers.
It might be time to consider using a distro that isn't ubuntu.
Contemplated it, but dealing with infrastructure bores me. So I think I will just put up with the ad and the lowered expectations.
