“Microsoft has reached a deal to purchase Linux”
You’re too late. The rebellion has flown away.
What a horrifying timeline that would be!
If I were in charge of a distro I’d push this as an update on April Fools Day
Which is part of why I’d be a bad pick for the position XD
The commit will never be allowed😂
Best I can do is:
You must activate Linux within 30 days.

I think your llama’s ears are suffering from some kind of malformed whitespace problem.
… guess you better pony up that money for the update that fixes it, lol.
Ubuntu has that dumb subscription to get security updates that pushed me away. Sure it was free for personal use, but I don’t want to have to give my personal information to get updates that are created primarily by volunteer open source developers anyway.
What do you think canonical should charge for? They do put a ton of work into the linux eco system
Entirely seriously:
Such as what exactly?
… Developing… Snaps?
Like, no, really, what do they do?
Are they why GNOME devs are insufferable?
???
You mean things like cloud-init, juju, a ton of work they do directly upstream on openstack, hardware certifications (which include things like getting vendors to upstream their drivers into the mainline kernel — something even Google has struggled with for Android), and making it more feasible for more companies to run Linux by providing the sort of long-term support that the community just doesn’t prioritise?
There we go!
Thank you for actually answering my question!
