If you ever need more reasons to avoid Ubuntu...
Lot of forks
This is written as if apt repos don't have package signing, automatic updating or security policies. It does all those things, and does it better.
Mark really has become like all the other South African wannabe-astronaut tech oligarchs.
for those curious you can install snap with this easy command
sudo apt purge snapd.I wonder what Mark thinks of the term "sloperating system"?
This is fucking brilliant!
I heard SomeOrdinaryGamers say it yesterday on youtube.
Edit: Took me three tries to get the name right lol, I don't usually watch his content.
canonical is the worst; hopefully mint continues stripping everything out
LMDE is Mint built on Debian. So there's no Ubuntu for them to even strip out.
Hello Debian my old friend...
Hard pass
And proves once again that Canonical is the Microsoft of Linux.
I love how Lennart went from RH to Microsoft. SO on-brand, that move.
Wat? What are you talking about?
Uh oh
My days of not paying attention to Ubuntu sure are coming to a middle
Sick reference, bro! Your references are out of control, everyone knows that!
People love to shit on Ubuntu, but I do think it's important to remember that their primary customers are enterprises. That's what pays the bills, and it's also the reason that it's so well-supported. And since it's still Linux, you can disable or remove anything you disagree with, or go with a fork that's done that heavy lifting for you. Some companies (and individuals) will want the best-in-class Linux support for AI inference. Get over it.
Not if their best SLSA level was 3, and they're aggressively going for 0.
