From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

They basically force you to use snaps, that's why it's not good.

They also have ads in the package manager.

They also show ads in the MotD on Ubuntu server.

So what's the misinformation again?

The interpretation of this line. Calling this "ads in the package manager" is intellectually dishonest in my opinion.

How is that anything other than an ad in the package manager?

Calls facts "misinformation", refuses to elaborate.

Talk about intellectually dishonest.
