'Best for what?' is the issue with this never-ending pointless discussion.

RHEL is a fantastic distro... For some things. It's also a horrible distro... For other things.

Wait.

So the average temperature fluctuates between 86F in summer to 73F in winter, surrounded by beaches AND they can ignore most of the world?

I'm jealous.

I hate them because they make Ubuntu useless for a desktop in an enterprise environment. Snaps have a bug where they will NOT open with a network home directory, which is common for a business ... And now they've made Firefox snap only.

So for a business environment: you can't even open the included web browser. WTF?

Do you understand now?

Hey Canonical, how about you spend that effort fixing (or removing) snap instead?

I still can't open the default Firefox install when using NFS home directories with autofs.

Ubuntu is now almost useless in an actual business desktop environment.

He's the one we need, but not the one we deserve.

Thank you! These are the search terms I was missing.

What's still not obvious to me is the remote management of the nix config on 500 machines. Without a config management system like Ansible, how to you push a change to those systems?

They probably realized snaps are garbage and are still trying to desperately un-garbage them before the release.

The question is are the production run also flawed?

They were a pain 20 years ago and they're a pain now.

Yup. Got the pop-up about being out of free articles. Opened a browser I never use (with no ad blocker... Cause I never use it) so I got to experience the site with ads.

The entire experience was hilariously ironic to read about service's enshitification... While being bombarded with constant ad garbage.

Bye bye wired. That was a waste of my time.

The distro you're using and the model of laptop and a link to the bug/commit would make it easier to answer what you can expect.
