Honestly, this is partially what is gatekeeping Linux. People hate making choices, especially when it is a new world. We should promote one distro with one desktop as the “best linux for Windows users”, ideally immutable with a flatpack store.
And no, fuck Canonical.
Even though Ubuntu tends to be easy to use, the company behind it is doing some stupid unnecessary shit, which is proprietary and they believe they always have to invent the wheel themselves instead of contributing/adopting already existing solutions.
Anyways, they are still by miles better than Microsoft, but I bet that they will monetize even heavier, when the market share of Linux rises in the future.
It is something you tend to see when you, when you actively use any linux distribution and come across some Canonical stuff.
Anyways, in simple terms: Canonical wants you to believe that Linux would be dead without them. But all users know that they won’t be missed for a second.
Take everything I say with a grain of salt. They are not that bad. They just don’t fit into the Linux ecosystem.
