Agreed 👍 skimmed over allt of comments in this thread and it does seem like most haters don’t have business experience with the os. Of course a different distro will work better and be cleaner. But that only makes sense if you install on a shitty home PC where overhead is a concern or you have all the time in the world to tinker around(looking at you arch). I need something that makes sense, have support and just works. I don’t need a “beginner” distro, I need something that comes with all apps preloaded to get actual work done and does not break everytime someone connects a docking station or tries to switch user (looking at you pop OS). And btw Ubuntu Pro (the ad that someone complained about) makes sense for really long term support on some machines, and it is a great deal.
We used to be 100% windows at work, from servers to workstations to integrated systems. Since last year we are moving some systems away from windows. Not only on old hardware but also on brand new, it just works. And compared to windows 11 it is so stable and makes so much sense. The cost is almost nothing, support is good, the actual data collection makes sense, canonical actually only use it to improve their OS and we are happy to report(windows ACTUALLY want to sell you ads and collect everything probably including you mother’s middle name, and phones home every few seconds)
Ubuntu is great. I use it on laptops, desktops, servers and IoT devices. We use it on thousands of corp workstations at my workplace too.
