Ugh, great another pointless name to memorize. I really have come to dislike the "cute names" Ubuntu uses and "Lunar Lobster" just makes me not want to. Not that Debian or MacOS are much better.
Sure maybe they're great if you're dealing with it all day, but to I have to Google which version is newer half the time. Or sit there and sing the alphabet song to myself cause I forget if h or k comes first.
- MattPalmer1086 4y agoOh come on! Nobody actually refers to the versions by the fun names anyway, the date version numbers are what people search for when they need info. They're just a bit of fun.
- elcritch 4y agoIf thats all they were sure, but a lot of configs do use the names. Like /etc/apt/sources.list or whatnot.
- MattPalmer1086 4y agoAh, that is true. Would be better if they switched to the version dates.
- zokier 4y agoUbuntu release names are alphabetical, that makes them great.
- wink 4y agoIf you work with it daily maybe. The LTS releases in numerical form are anchor points. (even number + .04), but even if I should know I'd have to look up again which one is 22.04. Wasn't a problem when doing OS stuff with servers every day, sure.
