      • The first was the amazon sponsored search. But that was a few years ago.
      • Constantly it’s Canonical’s not invented here syndrome where they don’t work with others to do new stuff but instead opt to push their own solutions which often fail.
      • Snap’s dependency on a proprietary store backend.
      • And the latest is locking some security updates behind a mandatory Ubuntu Pro account.

      Nothing quite as bad as what Microsoft is doing with Windows. But not really in the great fluffy open source spirit either.

      Luckily thanks to open source nobody is forced to put up with any of that.

        My goddaned xterm is lagging, like wtf. Literally logged into a virtual machine for work several hundred miles away running commands through some weird-ass windows SSH terminal software on a server several thousand miles away from the virtual machine and it lags less than the term on my local machine. I’ve moved from vim to vscode it’s so painful.
