Kubuntu for modern systems, Xubuntu for older systems, Lubuntu for older, low-end systems with limited RAM, Ubuntu server for headless servers.

Stay mad, Ubuntu haters.

    I'm fairly new to using Linux, is there an Ubuntu for every letter of the alphabet?

    It depends on the desktop environment.

    Ubuntu is the base version and uses GNOME.

    Ubuntu + KDE (the most superior of all DEs) = Kubuntu

    Ubuntu + XFCE = Xubuntu

    I will now refer to base Ubuntu as Gubuntu

    Snaps do suck, but from a usability standpoint, you really can't ignore the fact that 99% of documentation assumes deb, and Ubuntu is generally more up to date than pure Debian. I don't like it myself, but it works and it's better than Windows.

    I use Ubuntu for ROS and work specific tasks, but I get the fuck out when I want to game. Ubuntu looks like a job to me. Just like Windows looks like a job to me.

    But the thing is, that's just me. Can't imagine being mad at someone else for using it, but Ubuntu makes me irrationally mad because it's associated to work.

    It was based on Fluxbox window manager, but pretty sure it's been discontinued for a long, long time.

    I loved Fluxbox, which was over 20 years ago. I had completely forgotten about it.

    New set of memories unarchived, thanks!
