I don’t get the hate for Ubuntu. It’s easy to use, and there is nothing nasty you are forced to use, e.g. you can choose how much non-foss stuff you want to install, analytics are opt-in, etc.

I started reading that because I want to learn more about systemd and ended up wanting to go back to DOS. Presumably it all makes sense, but when I tried to read it my brain stopped working and my eyes slid off the bottom of the screen.

I don’t know why but I just found it incomprehensible.

Yup. It wasn’t a criticism of you.

Nope. Just pointing out an alarmist headline.

It’s an LPE, and doesn’t allow full root access to anyone who isn’t already a user.

Ubuntu comes with non-free drivers which can make it easier to set up and use. I use Debian on my server and Ubuntu on my laptops. They have both been pretty reliable for me. LTS versions of Ubuntu are pretty bug free but have older versions of software. I’d guess that Daniel was using a non-LTS release which are a bit more bleeding edge. The LTS ones strike a good balance between modernity and stability.

Ubuntu. It’s boring but it all works.
