The hatred for Ubuntu, Mir, Unity is increasingly irrational and difficult to understand.
Unity seems to be one of the more polished Linux desktops and there are many options, even if one doesn't like Unity or Mir there is zero compulsion to use them. Surely people investing their own time, effort and money to build free software and attract users is good thing?
But what then explains the hoarde of angry 'self appointed community spokespeople' singling out Ubuntu in every online discussion for NIH and duplication of effort.
By the same logic these community spokespeople should be accusing Flatpak of duplication of effort and NIH and haranguing Flatpak developers to join hands with the Snap project which precedes Flatpak. But all quiet on that end. This is a bit too hypocritical and seems to be more about some Redhat supporters seeking control than anything sincere.
How many Redhat, Gnome or Freedesktop projects are being targeted for NIH and duplication of effort the way Ubuntu's projects are.
