The Amazon thing is opt-in now. I use 16.04 as my desktop daily driver, because I like Unity and can't force myself to use Gnome shell, and it's a a great system. Ubuntu and its derivatives (Mint, xubuntu, kubuntu, etc) are systems that just work, that's why I prefer them. e.g. default font rendering on Ubuntu is better than Fedora, Arch, or any other distro I've tried.
