Annoyingly, along with this, the Ubuntu "Minimal" network installer is dead (no 22.04 release) — presumably to "encourage" people to move over to this.

- speedgoose 4y agoYes, I’m more encouraged to move back to Debian personally.
- josteink 4y agoAt this point all my from-scratch installs are usually Debian-based where they used to be Ubuntu-based. Canonical seems to completely have lost touch with what the community wants, and with the non-free installer, I find Debian working equally well OOB as Ubuntu has done in the past. The only machines I still keep on Ubuntu are the ones already running it where migrating them will be too much hassle. For my latest laptop, out of curiosity, I also tried Arch. It seems to work fairly well, but I haven’t had enough experience with it yet to “dare” put it on servers.
- cptnapalm 4y agoI'm using Manjaro on my laptop and it's been smooth so far, aside from an initial wifi chipset hiccup. I'm using it also on a laptop-as-a-router. Disabled all the graphical stuff. It's been very good, thus far and only 213 MB of RAM being used after disabling some (but certainly not all) unnecessary services. I do with they had a minimal install for x86_64 like they do for ARM.
