The nag screen only happens without a subscription.

I'm pretty sure the no-subscription repo can be enabled with a few clicks in the UI. I haven't experienced any issues with updates.

I haven't seen it misconfigure Ubuntu VMs either, but maybe I haven't tried one.

All in all, if those are your only complaints, it sounds pretty solid to me.

Yeah I never said it wasn’t good or didn’t work. It’s just held back from being fantastic by a bunch of stupid design decisions that from what I’ve heard are based on dev feelings instead of how the product is actually used
