Looks perfectly aligned with corporate and especially government IT practices. There the user is by far not the owner.

So if Ubuntu is pivoting hard into big corporate/govt

Who’s the new big community desktop distro?

[nine_k]

No idea! Debian proper? Fedora? Nix? Arch?..

(I personally run a relatively niche distro, https://voidlinux.org/)

Void's great although definitely for the tinker crowd (like arch was), debian seems like the better community choice

[sam_lowry_]

Arch

[briffle]

The transition from Ubuntu to Debian is about as simple as it gets, since Ubuntu derives much of their base from Debian..

[nine_k]

As someone said, "Ubuntu is Debian-based like milk is grass-based" :)

But certainly the bulk of the tools must be familiar.

Perhaps not exactly 'community distro', but Fedora is genuinely a joy to use.

[davidhyde]

Linux Mint of course

But even in those environments, Canonical isn't the owner.
