Greg Kroah-Hartman criticizes the Ubuntu distribution

Ubuntu is simply a scourge of the open source community distribution. Capitalists are "no profit, no early". "It is the most unwise choice for newcomers to use the Ubuntu series, because it is difficult to use other people's experience. Ubuntu has modified too many things to create incompatibility with other distributions.
"Ubuntu distributes a large number of free discs to a large number of junior users. These users are relatively poor in solving problems on their own. When they encounter problems and cannot get help from others because the system is incompatible with others, they will eventually succumb to Ubuntu. And buy the service of Ubuntu.

"This kind of scam method called sugar-coated cannonball has been tried and tested again and again. In fact, Microsoft does the same. It's just that Microsoft uses indulgent piracy to trap customers, and a large part of Microsoft's Windows is compiled by itself; Ubuntu knows It is a beginner in the circle, and the tools used are basically not its own, but GNU/Linux." (Note: One year after the above poster was posted, Ubuntu really provides a fee-based service that is more expensive than buying Windows Vista. )

Because Ubuntu directly copied the features of Debian, some netizens called Ubuntu the "Tomato Garden version of Debian". The release of this series is proud of being unconventional, hastily modified key codes, and is extremely irresponsible to users. For example, the unofficial modification of the random number generator has made the openssl key easy to repeat. Until now, Ubuntu is constantly adding black lists, leaving its users in danger of hanging upside down.

Another distinguishing feature of Ubuntu that distinguishes it from most other distributions is that it has changed greatly between adjacent versions. People often complain: "My Ubuntu cannot be started after upgrading." (For example, when version 7.04 is upgraded to 7.10, many users cannot enter X Window.)

At the same time, in order to further increase the user's trouble, Ubuntu replaced bash with dash, which brought a lot of compatibility problems. Unfortunately, on its own forum, Ubuntu was confirmed to use #!/bin/sh instead of #!/bin/dash at the beginning of some dash-compatible scripts, thereby digging its own grave and harming others. This shows that Ubuntu itself is not a serious product, not suitable for use as an operating system.

Companies that provide services for Ubuntu can make the most money only if users often encounter trouble. To make more money, not only must each user use the service more, but also expand the user base. This requires unscrupulous efforts to win over users from the Windows world.

Ubuntu does nothing to please Windows users. Made some modifications that broke *nix conventions, such as learning the Program Files directory of Windows, and installing different software into their own directories instead of being scattered in a unified directory structure, resulting in Ubuntu-specific problems such as tkConfig failure.

In summary, Ubuntu is a distribution that uses money to gain commercial benefits while harming the free software community. The average person should not take the initiative to use Ubuntu whether it is for self-interest or social responsibility.
