    If you thought you hated Ubuntu, lemme introduce you to Ubuntuce!

    The same shitty, anti-FOSS hyperfocus on Snaps, but now bundled with your favorite evangelical nuttiness!

    I’m guessing that zombie processes automatically get born again.

    I think the Venn diagram between Christofascists and Linux OS developers is one person.

      I love that they keep saying stuff like “introducing Ubuntu to the Christian community”, as if they couldn’t already use it.

      I mean… I only glanced over their landing page, and aside from the religious shit (and ubuntu heritage,) it doesn’t look that bad, or I’m missing something? They have preconfigured blocker and screen time monitor, which may be nice for some people.

      It probably doesn’t have support for plug and play, tho…

        it doesn’t look that bad

        Two failures and it’s not ‘that bad’? Just pick a better one.

      I am offended by snaps. I feel they’re a disingenuous attempt to control the FOSS ecosystem.

      I am OFFENDED by content blocking and policing. It’s a very blatant attempt to keep kids from getting important healthcare information. It ends up spreading disease and creating miserable people.

      I, personally, think that many rabbis would be offended at making a symbol the focus of your worship, and that a certain rabbi in particular would be perhaps more than offended if you made the particular gibbet they nailed him to the focus of your worship.

      Take out the religious aspect and it looks like a good OS for families and kids. Linux is lacking in the parental controls department compared to other systems so this is nice to see.

        Yes, but to block fake news you need the max setting, which also blocks social media

        If you’d prefer, of course, you could block social media without blocking fake news, because priorities
