It's not a distro war. It's a paradigm. Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, OpenSuse, ... are all classic distros meant to be manually handled, some are rolling, some are not, but they share the same '80s style way of work.
Declarative distros offer:
- stability
- easy replication
- easy upgrades
- easy rollback
Ubuntu in the past was interesting because Unity was a nice desktop environment for both a newcomer and a seasoned user, it does not interfere narcissistically with the user actions like Gnome SHell that to it's best to be at the center of anything or modern KDE. Unity was as minimal a Fluxbox while as nice and dice for users like a modern desktop environment. And was an Ubuntu only show.
After that Ubuntu is just another classic distro, good for a distro war between the Debianist the RH-ist etc. It's another SuSe back than. With NOTHING special to offer, except that it annoy it's users with snap.
