Without watching the video, Canonical are doing their best to get Ubuntu there.
Omg i just tried 24.04 in a vm for testing. I really hate the direction they’re taking gnome. I know they’re trying this minimalist thing, but it’s horrendous. I’ve been gone for a few releases, and this is the first time I’ve used Ubuntu and thought “this is garbage”. Like it’s become so dumbed down.
Maybe my tastes have changed, I dunno
GNOME and its applications have been headed in that direction for a while now, but I’m not sure Canonical are behind those changes. If they were, I’m sure they would have done something about GNOME apps looking alien on Xubuntu, for example.
As that link suggests, the Mint team are looking to produce apps that run on any desktop environment, forking GNOME apps that don’t comply with that. Hopefully that keeps the momentum going for that sort of thing.
Android. It would look like Android.

STOP GIVING THEM IDEAS AAAAA
Forked, but also Ubuntu.
I really enjoy how his videos get recycled already. He‘s pretty unique both in the fediverse, on youtube and in the linux sphere as he makes high quality content, is knowledeable in linux and cares about r2r and open source.
Thats like 3 jackpots in a row. This guy is as underrated as one can imagine.
I stopped watching Linux YouTubers after the Res Hat/CentOS Stream/Rocky controversy that happened recently. There were so many clickbait videos with a poor understanding of the problem just trying to make a buck off the communities anger and spreading disinformation .
The Linux Experiment handled it the best and had the most nuanced thought out view on the issue. This is despite us ultimately having different conclusions. My only complaint about his coverage is that if you visit his personal website he has some extreme views on ethics, including believing that investing in the stock market is unethical. I felt he should have been more upfront of that in his videos before sharing his views on the ethics of a company like Red Hat.
I’ll still watch some of his videos on occasion if they get picked up here and I believe him to be the most honest of the many Linux YouTubers. That being said I wouldn’t hold any of them in high regard. Many of their videos are sloppy, have clickbait titles, contribute very little, are are just trying to get ad revenue from you as much as Linus Tech Tips is.
Thanks for the elaborate answer. I can see all of your points as far as I‘m knowledgeable in them. The red had details are a bit out of my sphere but the rest I can grasp.
I have not seen his views concerning the stock market but in general I agree that the system is broken and rigged and ideally, we should get rid of it since it perverts all the efforts of hard working people to serve those with the most money and least empathy.
But besides this, I do think we need high quality (production) content in the fediverse as to both boost its popularity and make it easy to stay off youtube for those very hooked on regular talking heads in their lives.
Linus was dead to me when he „took“ the production sample and auctioned it off. Everything after that is not my concern.
But channels like gamersnexus, jayz2cents, networkchuck, jeffgeerling and co provide fun pastime with some tech input. If they decided to mirror on peertube I‘d probably support them.
Have a good one.
I like the E corp logo
Just ask Apple
LOL. Those raid ads baked into the OS were just a cherry on top.
It looks like it’s dying
