Canonical is a for profit company that ships a distribution of Linux. Linux has many very free alternatives. Ubuntu has a very nice user experience, and that's why people choose to use it.

- popinman322 10y agoSorry to nitpick here, but... Ubuntu is a linux distribution; Canonical is the company that maintains, serves, ships, and provides support for Ubuntu. I feel like you didn't make that distinction clear in your comment.
- Kerrick 10y agoTo nitpick even more, Ubuntu is a GNU/Linux distribution.
- bluejekyll 10y agoYou're of course correct, I updated my comment.
