Thankfully Ubuntu 12.04 is the Long Term Stable release. I think I'll be sticking with it for a really long time partially due to all this nonsense.
If 12.10 was the LTS I would probably have looked at switching distros.
- mverwijs 14y agoI was thinking on using CentOS6 on the desktop for this very reason. I'm sad.
- keithpeter 14y agoWhat has 12.04 got that 12.10 hasn't? Not challenging, just interested. Both have fallback, both allow the installation of XFCE4 desktop, both have the Lubuntu-desktop packages?
- josephlord 14y agoMostly not having to worry about removing shopping lenses and any other things. It's a growing lack of trust in Canonical. I don't use my Linux boxes as a desktop most of the time otherwise I would be giving XFCE a proper try. In fact the main desktop use is child use so I don't want to change it too much.
- keithpeter 14y agoLTS is the way to go for stability, especially with 5 years support on stock Ubuntu. Regarding the Amazon search stuff in 12.10, there is a kill switch in system settings, it was added in an update after all the hooha.
