Hey guys! I’m getting into the open source world and for years, i am finally hoing to try Linux! However, i see a lot of complains about Ubuntu and i just dont know why. What are you guys complains about Ubuntu? My next PC will come with Ubuntu. Do you guys think i should use Mint instead? Need help.
My only issue with Ubuntu is that snap feels fairly clunky. That’s why I moved to fedora. Also, definitely worth looking at pop os. But, all of them come down to personal preference
I think these days, Linus Torvalds moved to fedora
Genuine question: Am I missing something? I use Ubuntu and never use the Snap store. I only use the apt repository to install applications I find online. What is the advantage of Flathub over my current setup?
Sometimes even if you use apt, you’re really using the snap store. I believe Firefox is one such example.
Depends on your needs. If there are packages for everything you need, thats fine. Also, its fine if you don’t mind going to the sites and downloading directly. I have a few packages which are easier to use on flathub though.
I also find Gnome Software centre and discover are a lot cleaner than Ubuntu’s software used for package management.
Ubuntu these days has 15 years of software support though.
Both are fine in practice.
