Its not much better in regards to showcasing an attempt at good faith discussion, but let's try.Ah, you are the umpteenth complainer about Ubuntu!Maybe that alone should tell you something. If so many people complain about it, perhaps there's something Canonical should listen to and perhaps look into?' I've heard...', 'it seems...' blah blah blah.I don't think I'm using either of those statements incorrectly. I haven't used Fedora myself, so I can't speak about its experience myself, but I have friends whom I trust on their technical competence who are happy with it. So I have literally heard people whose opinion I value who would recommend this.
As for the "it seems", I also do not see how I might've misused that term, but feel free to point out my mistake!Not the best policy to back up a fantastic FOSS alternative to Big Tech, that f****g Trumpian Godzilla which has been infesting the internet for decades. Don't you think?If it was fantastic, there wouldn't be "umpteen" complaints about it. I've used #Ubuntu many times over the past 15 years, and while I liked it when it was still using Gnome 2, it has always had many stability issues compared to, say, #Debian. Its been a joke 15 years ago when I got into #GNU+Linux that "Ubuntu is an African word meaning 'I can't install Debian'". This joke wasn't created because everyone who ever tried had a good experience using Ubuntu.
Pretending there are no faults with Ubuntu is setting a false expectation. People who are going to try it because you pretend it has no issues will find out you were wrong, and they will question any further advice you give them. They are more likely to quit, because the promises they were made turned out to be false. If you want people to switch to GNU+Linux and continue using it, be honest about the troubles they may be walking into.
Also, keep your polarising American-centric politics out of a normal, genuine question. Free software transcends your tiny political bubble.
