I'm new to Linux and from what I gather a lot of seasoned Linux users do not see the purpose of netplan. Since I'm new I guess I'll stick with it however this was a great video.
Thanks. Linux people tend to be quite opinionated about the OS because they, most probably, have actively chosen to use Linux, rather than going with the majority and using Wins. When I made this video, some people asked me "why?", they seemed to regard Netplan as pointless. Whatever the situation, Netplan exists, it works, and it isn't too hard to use once you have a template for the type of network config you require. Thanks for watching!
Thanks Joe. NetPlan is an absoulte PITA when it comes to yaml syntax and indentation. gateway4 & gateway6 are both now deprecated. routes is now the preferred method of pointing Ubuntu to the outside world. Are you able to do a video using the preferred method?
I really hate, not so much netplan, but yaml with a passion. Never have experienced anything this pedantic, where even indentation it critical. I really hope it can figure this out soon.
It does take some getting used to, but after a few attempts, if you save off your working examples, it just becomes a case of altering a variable here and there. I save my working examples into a github repo.
Turns out that if you just put your own stuff in the 00-installation.yaml file it will be overwritten at next reboot. thanks for the excellent guide.
"Complaints aside, let's be positive, or try to be" should be the slogan for netplan

Agreed, I don't like netplan at all. People seem to find this info useful though, so I'll revisit with a new video after the summer hols, I think.

Netplan is garbage
