  • 8.10 was the last good Ubuntu. (It also had the best default wallpaper ever)

    If you look at the “improvements” in every release since, you’ll notice that shit like they do currently isn’t an accident:

    9.04 integrated web services into the main user interface.
    9.10 integrated Ubuntu One (Ubuntu’s OneDrive, upgradable for money) by default and introduced the slooooow Ubuntu Software Center
    10.04 integrated an interface to post on social media
    10.10 introduced Unity, and app purchases in the Software Center
    11.04 made Unity the default
    11.10 removed Gnome as fallback to Unity
    12.04 introduced the buggy HUD
    12.10 added the famous Amazon ad lense to it by default

    and it goes on like this…
