Ubuntu no longer has the Amazon suggestions, they listened to the users, and Arch and Gentoo aren't the only alternatives to Ubuntu; Fedora, Mint, Elementary, etc are all fine and as easy to use as Ubuntu. Why be so obviously disingenuous? Why make excuses for companies to screw your software? I switched to Linux a long time ago and every time I'm forced to use a proprietary operating system I get reminded that I made the right decision. I doubt any serious windows users support adware and privacy violations, only the people who invest in Microsoft.
