This is very disappointing to see. The screenshot shows "You're ready to go!", followed by "You can use 'Software' to install apps like these:". The apps they list, in left-right top-down order, are: VLC (free), Skype (non-free), Spotify (non-free), Slack (non-free), Discord (non-free), Corebird (free), Mailspring (free), GIMP (free), Minecraft (non-free), Android Studio (non-free), Ora (non-free), Notepad-Plus-Plus (free), Tusk (free), Brave (free), and IDEA Community (free).
That is 8 free and _7 non-free_. Also in the screenshot on the left is an Amazon icon.
We've known #Ubuntu to do these things for a while now, but I grow increasingly disappointed with each release. Ubuntu also encourages the use of proprietary software through "snaps", and advertises non-free software by default through their package repositories unless you explicitly check a box (at least in previous version) during installation to use only free repositories. -

Die #Arroganz ist schon überwältigend, die Einem manchmal im Technikumfeld entgegen schlägt. Pro-Linux.de hält einen aktuellen Artikel bereit, der über den Entschluss weiterer Derivate von #Ubuntu berichtet die 32bit-Unterstützung zu kippen.
Angeblich hätten die meisten Entwickler gar nicht mehr entsprechende Hardware verfügbar und überhaupt sei die Architektur hoffnungslos veraltet. Das sicherlich in Teilen korrekt sein. Dennoch enthält diese Argumentation einen gehörigen Anteil von Arroganz. Was ist beispielsweise mit #Meltdown, #Spectre sowie in Teilen auch #Spectre-NG? Diese Fehler sind immer noch nicht vollständig behoben und daher gültige Sicherheitslücken. Und was ist mit der rein menschlichen Komponente? Man sollte meines Erachtens niemals vergessen woher man kommt und wie die Wegstrecke dazu ausgesehen hat. Oder ist es inzwischen auch probat nahezu überall schnellstmöglich zu "vergessen"? Gibt ja genug "Ressourcen" und daher können wir auch ganz verschwenderisch damit umgehen. Was ist dann mit der umwelttechnischen Komponente? Also jedwede als "alt" markierte Hardware-Komponente auf den Müll werfen? Prima, trägt ja ordentlich dazu bei wieder Andere zu belasten und beispielsweise Elektroschrott an die Küsten Afrikas zu spülen.
In Summe kann man nur den Kopf dazu schütteln und daher schlicht wie einfach ein #Fuck-Off-Ubuntu sowie ein #Fuck-Off-Canonical. Für die hohe Portion an Ignoranz! #Meinung #Gedanken

Unity 8 (Linux desktop environment) update.
Now developed by UBports team (and blessed by Canonical) is on the path really making it happen.
More information regarding Unity8 on Ubuntu 18.04 is available in the post https://forums.ubports.com/topic/1039/18-04-desktop-getting-it-working-again/10 at the UBports forums.

Bald wieder eine neue Linuxanwenderin direkt in der Familie. Freue mich darauf, nur welche Distribution? #Ubuntu auf gar keinen Fall. Und ein Derivat wie #ZorinOS? Nein, nicht wirklich.
Am Ende wird es dann wohlweislich #Trisquel werden. Die neue Version #Flidas erscheint mir absolut gut geeignet dazu. Also bereite ich schon einmal das vorgesehen Notebook - ein Gerät von #Packard-Bell - entsprechend vor. Will sagen: Austausch des WiFi-Chips und einige Modifikationen am BIOS. #Free-and-LibreIn conversation from gnusocial.federated-networks.org permalink -

Linux hardware vendor System76 from US (and now a Linux distribution maker too) have announced their new *POWERFUL* Oryx Pro laptop.
Linux gamers & multimedia content creators rejoice!
OS choice is between their brand new Pop!_OS 18.04 LTS (64-bit) or Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
How about a video to go along with it? It's cool and maybe even funny. Promise! ---> https://youtu.be/TcWVKqeF0MY
