Nobody gave a fuck when Launchpad was open sourced. People just demand and demand and when a company does the thing they don’t care.

I have to ask, when was the last time you even looked at a screenshot of Ubuntu? That script is from the Unity era. The first lines remove a shopping lense. Not a thing since 2016. And even if it was still somehow valid which it’s not, it’s mostly hardening the OS. Yes, stock Ubuntu is not an impenetrable fortress. No distro is.
Also the stupid script removes a local logging service which is not used anymore either, but here’s a thread about it https://askubuntu.com/questions/180990/what-is-zeitgeist-used-for

So is android and many other technologies we rely on everyday.
That I can confirm. Windows won’t let me move files if any app is using them. I sometimes do it by accident when I’m editin an office document, realize it’s in the wrong folder so I try to drag it to Documents. That won’t work. But I got used to it pretty quickly.
When the hell would I need to update my Windows because of an app update? I only restart when there is a system update, which you have to do on Linux too if you want your kernel to stay up to date.
I appreciate Linux for how well it can handle single-purpose tasks, like if I wanted a media centre or such, but after daily driving it for 3 years on my Desktop I’ve had enough. Anyone who thinks it’s easy has a lot of spare time they wish to invest into a thing that’s supposed to just work.
Open terminal
See whether the app is in my distro’s repos, flathub, or snapcraft (It’s not)
Go on the internet, search up the app’s name
Download the AppImage (might be a virus)
LibFuse2 is not installed (fuck me)
Install LibFuse2
Install Gearlever to integrate AppImage into my desktop
I can finally launch the app
I need to install all of my apps under Linux as well. Doesn’t make much of a difference. I don’t like the default browser, media player, torrent client, office suite, etc. that Mint ships with for example.
Windows itself was installed during that time. Additional software installation took a few minutes. I installed stuff when I needed it thorough the day.
I heard this before. Is it because of its documentation?
