Ubuntu’s popularity often makes it the default choice for new Linux users. But there are tons of other Linux operating systems that deserve your attention. As such, I’ve highlighted some Ubuntu alternatives so you can choose based on your needs and requirements—because conformity is boring.

    Last time I used latest Ubuntu:

    • Default scaling on login screen and desktop sucked. If I had vision problems it would be unusable.

    • Settings application crashed after trying to open half of the menus.

    • Despite user interface looking like it’s made for tablets, the actual touch usability was horrible. I couldn’t even resize windows without being precise as fuck and there was no windows snapping despite it being a feature on Windows for more than a decade.

    • Couldn’t double click on Windows program to run it in Wine despite it being possible 10 years ago.

    • Reliance on snaps, even though installing software from 3rd party sources still being horrible.
