Whether it’s jokes about Snap packages or criticism of Canonical’s decisions, mocking Ubuntu often feels like the default attitude in parts of the Linux community.
To be fair, Canonical has made decisions over the years that have not always been well received, and some of the criticisms of Ubuntu and the direction it’s taken have their own merit. Yet, the derisive way Ubuntu is often talked about online isn’t particularly fair and, frankly, misses the point.
That’s just the difference between an LTS and everything else though. Debian is meant to be slow to release, battle tested, and focused on stability.
Ubuntu aren’t that good with their LTS either. Other than that I agree.
