When Windows users suddenly discover that their files have vanished from their desktops after interacting with OneDrive, the issue often stems from how Microsoft’s cloud service integrates with the operating system. The automatic, near-invisible shift to cloud-based storage has triggered strong reactions from users who find the feature unintuitive and, in some cases, destructive to their local files.
Ubuntu has kind of fallen out of favor with a lot of people, myself included. It used to be my go to, then I went mint, now I run fedora Bluefin.
IMO, if they want to Ubuntu, let them. We all have our favorite flavors, but whatever they’re comfortable with is a fine point to start with.
If they want ubuntu, let them Linux Mint! :D
Why not straight up Debian?
Oh for sure, do what you want to do. I’m just saying, while everyone has their opinions, some people like to follow the crowd of popular opinion, and the crowd is moving away from Ubuntu. Maybe not everyone knows that 🤷♂️
Ubuntu is like the moon. It waxes and wanes with the spinning of the earth. Basically every few years it gets popular then every few years those people that made a popular move to something else and it drops in popularity and then suddenly it becomes popular again when a new group of people come out and try linux. It’s a very user friendly basic version of Linux that can be made very powerful.
