One of the benefits of Linux is it's easy to customize. I like to install Ubuntu and the first thing I do is get rid of Unity. I prefer i3. I still benefit from the vast amount of repositories and the large community Ubuntu has. Unity is not necessary to benefit from Ubuntu, in fact, I think it holds Ubuntu back.

- chez17 13y agoBecause I would just uninstall those window managers and install i3. For me, i3 is just so vastly superior to the others, there is no reason to use anything else right now.
