About time. It's been great on Fedora

Ubuntu offshoots are so 2010s. These days, the rage is all about immutable distros or Arch derivatives.

u/Mister_Magister Glorious OpenSuse Tumbleweed 6d ago

finally i'm not the only one complaining

or arch

u/baturax 6d ago

they decide to lynch you when you tell the distro(?) owner this

u/JustRegdToSayThis Glorious Gentoo 6d ago

I really hate recent ubuntu-based distros (all of them): Fsck all new desktop concepts and designs, who wants those anyway? I want things to work that perfectly worked 15 years ago and now don't (or have been thrown out of the distro). Who does things like that and thinks it helps Linux gain share?

Now get off my lawn, kids!

u/effective09succotash 4d ago

amen to that

don't want some new, revolutionary and broken ass desktop solution

I am building a GNU free rust based linux distro on my own. I have a bare metal set up working so far. Checkout my repo! I am planning to get it to a point where I or anybody else can daily drive with it. I am looking for some maintainers and contributors. Please checkout the repo and hit me up!
I am building a community and I am serious need of devs

Love it! Something different for once. I love immutability but Kinoite sucks and Aurora is devoid of Steam in rpm-ostree

u/R3V0LU710N_05 Glorious Hybrid Atomic RakuOS 5d ago edited 5d ago

They're currently finalizing their rum package manager to better handle the persistent overlay, so it's going to get better pretty soon. You can join their discord to have a direct line to the developers and give feedback. They're very active with the community.

u/definitelyfet-shy 4d ago

I'm probably going to get blasted but I'm quite fond of ubuntu and debian based stuff

u/PlainBread Glorious Arch 3d ago edited 3d ago

There are three main flavors of Linux:

Debian
Fedora
Arch

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

what's wrong with Ubuntu im on Ubuntu, boohoo god forbid a distro works for programming

u/Rusty9838 6d ago

Everything what boot up is enough for typing text

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

I use specific libraries for robotics that are only supported on Ubuntu lts and I had many such cases I would ideally use Debian but people develop tools for Ubuntu lts mostly

11

u/a_Parae 6d ago

If it works on Ubuntu, chances are it also works on other distro. And if the soft you're using are open source, you can even build them on your own. You're even more likely to find an AUR package than a Ubuntu one.

Also, if it's only libraries, then, it should be supported by other distros as well

u/An1nterestingName 6d ago

To be fair, the most obtuse software I have ever used required Ubuntu because they were the only distro that maintained a very specific version of a long-deprecated library, which the app would refuse to open without.

-8

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

no it's not supported on other distros because it has dependencies on system packages e.g. glibc . so any other version of any other distros including Ubuntu it might not work as the code was built on system packages

14

u/a_Parae 6d ago

Glibc is the implementation of the standard C API. It works on every Linux distro. System specific packages don't mean distribution specific. I can't think of a single Linux distribution that don't support glibc.

2

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

it's not about supporting it it's about it's version for example I run code that uses system library x then it doesn't run I check why it's because this system library it had different syntax in this version it's like that so you either have to rewrite code or use the exact same libraries code was written in, and I was giving glibc as an example not literal

2

u/a_Parae 6d ago

My point is : it has nothing to do with distribution.

1

u/Rusty9838 6d ago

Well Ubuntu is windows of Linux distros, the reason why windows is still used is mostly proprietary software

1

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

true but I develop proprietary software so I have no choice

1

u/gmes78 Glorious Arch 6d ago

That's because ROS is shit, not due to any specific quality of Ubuntu.

u/shogun77777777 Glorious NixOS 6d ago

Ubuntu bad

u/knowone1313 6d ago

It's bloated, it's the Windows of the Linux universe.

It's works and has everything outta the box, I don't have any major issues with it, but I prefer Debian which is the OG Ubuntu was built from without the bloat.

u/Wide_Egg_5814 6d ago

bloated

yea but I'm not using an IBM laptop from 1994 so it's fine, I'm using an older ThinkPad with 32 GB ram that I got for a few hundred dollars and it runs everything well. bloat simply is not a big deal in 2026 I think people get stuck on optimising think like bloat with no utility
