| Nov 1, 2019 at 21:48 | comment | added | NoDataDumpNoContribution | Probably ubuntu and unix could be merged by now. The current fragmentation doesn't help anyone. It's kind of symptomatic for Unix based systems though.Everyone is trying to reinvent the wheel so we ended up with gazillions of wheels. | |

| May 22, 2018 at 20:33 | comment | added | Evan Carroll | It may be worth revisiting this since it was largely a popularity contest and Ubuntu is no longer the most popular distro. The last time this thread was touched was in 2015. Both the answer and question site distrowatch, and now Ubuntu sits at the more humble 4th most popular distro. | |
