you do you. But ubuntu is the windows of linux from the perspective of telemetry, propertiary software and such. Like if ur gonna switch to linux might aswell "fully" switch

I agree about that today, but it wasn't always so easy to install linux for noobs as it is now.

It may be easy to forget, but Ubuntu was doing "easy jnstall" better than moat linux distros for a long time. I bet there are a lot of non-programmer-linux-daily-driver folks out there that got started on ubuntu. I'm one of them.
