Ubuntu in general has been disappointing I still use it for servers though I'm considering moving to something based on RHEL.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Distros preinstalling software lol. It should be easy to find, install, uninstall, restrict and configure software. I dont care about that bloat in the ISO. Nice to find stuff sometimes, and maybe useful in areas with bad internet, but thats not what a distros job is

Are people regularly opening Microsoft Office documents? I don't think I've touched one since I was at school, which I finished in 2012.
I joined the cybersecurity club at my school and they used word or pdf for submissions. I spent a good 15 minutes trying to get code blocks and proper formating working on either but it didn't work. I gave up and just tool a scrolling screenshot of my blog and added a link in the docx file.
(And yes, I tried pandoc. My blog uses quarto, a static site generator based on pandoc markdown, and it uses pandoc. I tried to generate word and pdf using it and they looked awful.)
