So... also Ubuntu then
- Mikeb85 5y agoWhere are the Ubuntu ads? I remember the Amazon ads back in the day, but there haven't been any in quite some time.
- e3bc54b2 5y agoUbuntu has weird ads in the apt upgrade or something like that promoting their other services. They also sneak in their Snap package for Chromium even if user asks apt to do it. In general the Snap push feels like making proprietary apps normal on Linux desktop.
- daxelrod 5y agoThey promote other technologies of theirs via the MOTD, which some consider an ad. See https://news.softpedia.com/news/canonical-under-fire-for-putting-ads-in-the-ubuntu-motd-530372.shtml https://news.softpedia.com/news/canonical-under-fire-for-put... . Here's the current MOTD: https://motd.ubuntu.com/ https://motd.ubuntu.com/
- officeplant 5y agoYes? Ubuntu has its fair share of problems over time as well. Luckily there are hundreds of other distros.
