Canonical just can't stop showing their ass. Do many people even use Ubuntu anymore? I feel like most have jumped ship to Linux Mint at this point. Either way, this in addition to all of Canonical's previous blunders should tell people to gtfo of their environment.

    ubuntu is really useful as an enterprise/just spin something up quick kind of OS. really useful for virtualization, default OS in WSL, lots of stuff is built for ubuntu toolchain wise in industry, etc

    my boss had a conversation w a guy who was using arch in WSL and fighting with configs and setting things up every step of the way because everyone else in our office used ubuntu in WSL for development.

    I still do but it's been my distro for ages. When I finally upgrade my old thinkpad I'll be free of canonical. Still don't know if I'm going to Debian or fedora or something immutable 😵‍💫

    Come to the immutable/atomic side, best experience I've ever had on Linux

    I've never been able to understand what an "immutable" distro is for or how it would change my life.

    Mainly stability for me. I don't have to worry about my system breaking because I can easily rollback to a previous version on the grub menu, then I can pin a working image and/or rollback to multiple versions behind if I need it for whatever reason. I also don't need to worry about updating because Bazzite just updates in the background and applies it on reboot/shutdown.

    I suppose I don't understand the need because I have never needed the feature. An extremely basic distro has always been very stable for me.

    I guess it makes more sense as an end-user if you need rather up to date software, I game a lot so having newer kernel, KDE and mesa versions are a must for me. For distro devs it means they have a much more standard environment since everyone's system is practically identical software-wise where it matters for them.
