If you're running Ubuntu as a server this is useful advice.

If you're running Ubuntu as a desktop, just install Fedora instead..

Or Mint which is pre unsnapped for your pleasure

Mint is a solid choice, but I really like KDE and Fedora saves me the hassle of switching DEs after install.

But yes, for most Ubuntu users, switching to Mint is a capital idea.

Naah fedora = red hat and red hat = bad. I’m all in on Vanilla OS.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed moment (although I'm still on Fedora on my primary device because moving is inconvenient while at school)

Red Hat are no better or worse than Canonical at the end of the day. If you're dead set on avoiding anything with corporate backing, I guess switch to Gentoo or something.
