    Yeah no it does suck it made me think the Linux experience was at least 3x worse before I tried another distro.

    And not just a DE thing, every part of the distro feels like it was slapped on without actually thinking of the consequences.

    • netplan
    • apt
    • default systemd dependencies
    • ubuntu GNOME
    • snap
    • ubuntu pro
    • cloudinit conf

    You can find forums and docs from as old as Fedora 11 that’s still relevant yet Ubuntu utterly fails to keep consistency across a single version update because they changed something that’s only mentioned in the changelog.

    Every downstream of Ubuntu is essentially focused on removing all the BS the upstream has so you can use your computer without something breaking like it’s Arch an overused meme about Arch.

    There is no right answer to the correct distro, only a wrong answer, and that is Ubuntu because practically anything else including its downstreams like LM are better for you as a user.



  • You ever notice how most docker images are usually based from Ubuntu, the arguably worse distro to use for dependency management.

    The other core issue is people using docker as a configuration solution with stuff like compose.

    If I want containers, I usually just use LXC.

    Only docker project I liked was docker-osx which made spinning up OSX VMs easy, but again it was basically 80% configuration for libvirt.
