You only hate Canonical because they've successfully popularized streamlined Linux,
Dunno, I'm on Ubuntu right now.
>>101578456No it's actually because of the spyware
Thanks for telling us you know nothing about Canonical
>>101578456they fucked my girlfriend while i was in iraq
>>101578456I don't hate them, but they could start moderating that garbage store of theirs and removing the 10000 hello world snaps. Snaps as a technology are fine, pretty good in some cases even.
fuck snapsfuck motd shillingfuck old and tampered debian pkgs
>>101578456You know this board is full of retarded zoomers when they think Canonical = Ubuntu and nothing else
>>101579026you forgot one>fuck ubuntu pro
Calm down guys. Remember, Ubuntu is just Linux for human beings. Relax!
The only thing I don't like is how aggressively they push Snap.If I weren't on RHEL already, I'd be on Ubuntu LTS for sure.>>101579086Mmmm herring
>>101578456Grab a 24.04 ISO and install on metal, right now. Then try to enable Hardware acceleration on Firefox and use File Roller to drag some files into a zip. Streamlined, LMAO.
>>101579514Setting about:config to enable vaapi has always just worked for me on my Intel and AMD systems. Nvidia refusing to support standards isn't Ubuntu's fault. The File Roller thing is unacceptable, but the port to GTK4 needs to happen to fix it under Wayland.
>>101578456>You only hate CanonicalBut I don't.
>>101579026>Harder, Red Hat-sama! Harder!
>>101578456>because they've successfully popularized streamlined Linux,They have?
Please write a 12-20 page essay about why cannonical is hated by chuds, and what that means for cannonical.
>>101578456no I dislike them because of apt and .deb. That's pretty much it
>>101579026does tyrone knows you are posting on the biggoted website again? he going to take your BBC rights as a punishment

I just hate snap and the way they have been aggressively pushing it.That said flatpak sucks too. I can see it works in Silverblue but if you are just a normal desktop user looking to install a couple odd apps that aren't compatible with your system libs (calibre and pyQT for example), the size bloat is just too atrocious because the huge flatpak libs aren't reused.
>>101580108>flatpak libs aren't reusedwut?
>>101580162I mean the runtimes. If you only have like one or two flatpak apps, obviously those are the only ones that can make use of the runtimes, but the runtimes need to be installed anyway and they are huge.I tried to install calibre via flatpak recently and it asked me to install about an extra 2GB of runtimes (the calibre flatpak itself is like 300MB iirc). I then downloaded an appimage only 190MB and it just worked.
>>101578456I tried to update Ubuntu to 24.04 version and it fucking broke. Now I'm on Debian and it's so comfy. I don't need fucking Canonical
>>10158036824.04 is literally not ready to be upgraded into yet. Besides, what the fuck are you doing upgrading an LTS release so early in its lifecycle? You have only yourself to blame.
>>101578456"Hate" is an emotion. Applying emotions to tech is illogical. Rather accept the logic that Canonical will once again implement telemetry once people forget they were caught doing it before.
>>101578456>popularized streamlined Linux,The only reason Linux is good is because normies can't use it.
>>101578456It's literally gnome de.
>>101578456I don't hate them and no they haven't
>>101578456i hate canonical because they never send back a dick pic in return to my dick pic.
>>101580297>extra 2GB of runtimeshalf of a python venv. 6.25% of the average usb stick.
>>101580368>Now I'm on Debianso you did the opposite of an upgrade and went to older packages?
>>101578456>they made unityHATE>they abandoned unityMORE HATE
>>101578529no, that was decanocalous
>>101578456i hate them because they have a massively time wasting application and interview process, and dont see a problem with wasting peoples time who are looking for jobs.
>>101578456I applied for a job at Canonical and they wanted me to write a 25 page essay and take an IQ test
>>101580656They have images of their Long Throbbing Schlong in the Downloads page, they can't just reply to every single message because the demand is too high
They hate Canonical because they dared to:• save us from Wayland insanity with Mir• save us from Flatpack with Snap• save us from RedHat/IBM corporate overlordsCanonical did nothing wrong. World would be a better place if they succeeded. If you disagree you hate freedom of choice.
>>101580678That's just for one app, and one not tied to heavy stuff like gnome or kde. I can easily see the runtimes stacking up to ~10GB if you happen to install 3~4 small apps with non-overlapping dependencies. I thought one of the point of using a self-contained package like flatpak or snap or appimage is that you don't have to install a gazillion of dependencies just to use one odd app, but flatpak doesn't give me that, appimage does.
>>101578456I don't hate Canonical, but I'll still install Debian instead of *buntu cuz I'm not ok with telemetry and being force-fed snaps.
