Ubuntu has zero telemetry if you flick the switch they show you right after installation. And steam is proprietary software, yet basically every distro ships it in their repos. Your points make no sense.

it is opt out... Besides why use a distro where you are in cannonical's mercy when you can use anything else

And when Mint is right there too.

I have Ubuntu packages all through my system and I don’t need to care about whatever BS canonical is up to. Worst case scenario is I switch to LMDE one day.

Every distro ships steam, really?

I'm sure it's not literally all of them, and it's almost never preinstalled. But available in the repositories.
