Debian, Fedora, and OpenSUSE all offer excellent alternatives depending on your reasons for staying.
I am on Debian and Pop. However, if they're dropping the deb distribution, what does that mean for the non Ubuntu folk? Maybe I've misunderstood it all?
Ubuntu is (mostly) based on Debian. This is simply a move by Ubuntu to further push their own packaging platform which is effectively proprietary at this time. Debian's own packaging will remain unchanged.
Excellent. Then it doesn't matter to me at least. Thank you for the reply.
Still, i don't trust, nor like the concept of the proprietorial snap system.
They must be trying to set themselves up to be purchased.
Seems like they are only dropping the deb for Ubuntu.
Excellent. Then it doesn't matter to me at least. Thank you
