So why not just have only a pro version? This question is coming from a home user who has 22.03 installed on a home PC. Sounds like I should get pro to get the 10 years of security relief and confidence instead of the 5 with LTS.
WOW, so glad for these comments. Thanks to all of you! I Will NOT be attempting this operating system due to ads. I am leaving Microsoft for the same BS behavior. Linux Mint here I come, wish me luck and thanks again.
Linux mint is based on Ubuntu by the way
@@ainyaku There's also a Debian version, by the way :D
So this is there's a difference between pro and usual?
Oh yes we've added dark mode to everything, we even give you the opportunity to be a PRO! Because your a winner, and all PROs are winners! Don't you want to be a winner? Get Pro(blems) we leave out the other stuff to fit more stuff you thought you needed.
2m and 2s 🤣
For personal use and for those who don't want this service, it means that *by default* you'll see an advertisement every time you open a shell on an OS that had once the promise of being clean and free of this kind of bloatware.
Não é exactamente assim, o UBUNTU continua a ser OpenSource e não tem advertisement ou bloatware
@@heliodbt Aonde é que disse que o Ubuntu deixou de ser open-source? E apartir do momento que, por defeito, eu abro uma shell e vejo sempre uma frase que remete para eu experimentar um serviço pago, é bloatware.
What advertisement do I see when I open a shell? On my System I do see the following message: maik@A3000X:~$
- where is the advertisement?
either you die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain lmaooooo
Ahh yes, the impossable to figure out motd system... just delete the message, it takes liek 45 seconds. Ubuntu spends so much R&D making linux better, and you are bitching about a single rm command?
Why don't you just integrate ads into Gnome?
You don't have to like MS and just steal all data and don't care but I think everyone serious can understand that you guys also need money to improve Ubuntu.
So you are locking security updates behind a subscription service? Looks like I need to migrate my home server to Debian.
What do you feel has been locked behind a subscription exactly, to you, a home user?
LTS versions have always been supported for 5 years, they still are supported for 5 years. Nothing has been taken away on that front. If you were fine with your Ubuntu home server before, you can keep being fine as literally nothing changed.
Ubuntu Pro adds 5 years of support ON TOP of that and it's free for personal use for up to 5 machines, so your home server can keep getting supported for 10 years if you want, for free.
@@Kinbote4444 I'll fully admit my complaints are on principle, not any real impact. Companies going to subscription services for everything as a method of value extraction rubbs me the wrong way.
... where exactly did they say that?
Incorrect.
So annoying, I can´t remove it from the Software Updater. Basically a build in Ad again 🤮
Hiding essential security updates behind ANY kind of pay-wall after they are written, tested, and otherwise available, is NOT legally or morally defensible, and in the event of a serious security breach affecting either the Ubuntu desktop or server user community will subject Canonical to cripplingly massive legal liability.
Legalities aside, a failure to immediately propagate as widely as possible ANY and ALL security related patches is literally the most disgusting and morally reprehensible possible violation of the share-and-share-alike spirit of every FOSS license on which Ubuntu depends for it's very existence.
So, while It is certainly true that Ubuntu has room for improvement when it comes to providing timely security updates in their "universe" repositories, locking the fixs behind any kind of pay-wall has to rank as one of the most monumentally stupid ideas in the history of mankind. -- Canonical, please find some other way to 'monetize' Ubuntu . . .
Read your /etc/apt/sources.list and you'll see explicitly stated that universe is not supported by Canonical, and it never has been. It's not even enabled by default unless you choose to install third party software during installation. Now, they're supporting it via a subscription AND extending support for another 5 years.
Home users can just make an account and get the updates for free, but companies have to get subscriptions, otherwise such an investment of developer resources would make no sense financially for Canonical. After all, they're a company.
They've always given everyone 5 years free on LTS. So many companies offer extended support for additional years of service of servers. Why should only 3rd party companies get this? And as a home user, you get it free anyway. So literally they are offering home users 10 YEARS of free software patches.
I dont understand why you are upset that they are monitizing businesses with software patches AFTER their usual LTS timeline (that they've kept the same for years)
I'll change to another distro as soon as I find time.
Why exactly is that?
I'm literally going to have remove ubuntu on all my computers... son of a gun
What? This is a free and optional thing. LOL
