    What Do You Love and Hate about Ubuntu?

    If you ever felt sometimes like you want to say (or just scream) "I LOVE UBUNTU" (I bet you have some Ubuntu stickers in your house) and you did not have the chance or no one heard you, then here is your chance to say what you feel about Ubuntu (and it's derivatives) in general. All the existing, new and wannabe Ubuntu users should unite and make this distribution, THE BEST ever Linux operating system out there; and this way, we can compete with big operating system like Windows and Mac. It's time for Linux users to have a strong, easy to use and powerful desktop operating system, and Ubuntu can help us. Come on people, we can change the future!

    And please write below your suggestions and comments. Thank you!

    Let's make Ubuntu perfect!

    Re: What Do You Love and Hate about Ubuntu?

    The only thing I don't like about ubuntu, and many other distros, is the update schedule. How can we expect to grab more windows users if every 6 months you have to update to another version?

    When I first installed ubuntu dapper I thought it was great. It said I would get many years of support. How nice! However this support does not come in the form of bug fixes or feature enhancements. It is only for security updates and nothing else. I am disappointed that to get some bug fixes, I will have to update to feisty when it comes out.

    I had originally hoped that I could keep dapper installed for many years, But because of the lack of support, I can't
    MS gonna get ya

    Ubuntu-desktop and (seemingly) arbitrary dependencies.

    Agreed. I love Edgy and I don't think I'm gonna upgrade to Feisty (maybe eventually), but that's gonna mean I won't have the support I do now, and even here on the forums eventually virtually everybody will be talking about Feisty, so it'll be harder to get stuff on Edgy etc.

    hate: the default colour (a little)....and that's all
    love: the philosophy, the release schedule, mark shuttleworth (), apt-get, THE COMMUNITY, the default package selection, the repos' size

    I love everything about it and hate the bad drivers ATI offers and the lack of great games.

    Re: What Do You Love and Hate about Ubuntu?

    GOOD:

    • The freedom and ability to control just about every aspect of my OS.
    • Many choices when it comes to software applications.
    • Open source software and drivers.
    • A strong online user community, ready to help with just about anything.
    • Lightweight and fast.
    • Intuitive package management.
    • Security model simple yet effective.


    BAD:

    • Lack of many educational software titles.
    • Inferior drivers or unsupported devices.
    • Home network setup and functionality could be better.
    • Takes too much time to do what seems conceptually simple (i.e. particularly certain system or driver configuration).
