>Linux Mint to keep actively maintained distros off of Ubuntu or Gnome
you mean Linux Mint Debian Edition, yes it is exactly the reason they keep it going; who knows what Canonical might do tomorrow. Ubuntu is no longer "Linux for Human Beings"
- SV_BubbleTime 3y agoI’m biased because my first experience with Ubuntu was so bad that ut put me off of Linux for literally a decade. Now, I get the impression that Ubutnu is far more important for backend than frontend. So, yea, “for humans” not so much. That is what I think Pop and Mint are doing well with.
- throwaway154 3y agoThe positive part of snaps, and I don't like snaps for myself, is that snaps keep updating on an unmaintained server. So as a default for VPS providers seeking to hand hold users Ubuntu perhaps makes sense. At least that's what I understand. However on a server I use Debian (stable) as I purposefully don't want to be at the 'cutting edge'. [I also use Debian on my laptop because it just works.]
