Please, don’t listen to this kind of nonsense and keep using whatever you’re happy with.

While I personally don’t love Ubuntu, it is a perfectly fine choice and if you’re comfortable with it that’s just great! Period.

So, congratulations for making this choice and don’t hesitate to ask if you have questions. You’ll find that the Linux community has much more to give than “you shouldn’t use X, use Y because I say so”. Just ignore this.

Keep it up, enjoy the ride and welcome!
