I dont understand hatred toward ubuntu

Software & Operating Systems Linux
101

I was a Debian user for ~10 years, the last few years wishing that someone would polish it up into something easier for desktop use. Along came Ubuntu and I jumped aboard. I rolled a customized Ubuntu live distro for a while, which was very useful for quick setup of programming workshops; likely no other Linux OS at the time would have allowed me to do this so quickly and easily.

Then various cloud hosting services and Docker came along, and I was glad for all of the Debian/Ubuntu skills.

One of the unsung niceties that Ubuntu enjoys is solid version-to-version in-place upgrades. I haven’t re-installed an OS on my primary laptop for the past 5 years. Any other Linux OS that I want to take for a spin or use for testing fires up easily in QEMU/KVM through virt-manager.

Ubuntu, " a really big and important player "?
"They are pioneers "?

Using the term " big dogs ", and including them in the same group as you did is at best insulting.

Thanks I needed the laugh.

Is it?

Well that´s your opinion…
But this topic has been marked as solved,
so i guess that topic starter is already finnished with this discussion.
And there for i´m going to lock it.
If topic starter wants it to be re opened he can send me a pm.

If you feel the need to explain me why you think that my post,
was “insulting” to say the least.
Then feel free to send me a pm aswell.

Your´e welcome. :wink:
