At points they’ve updated multiple times per day.

Fully blocking only if you aren’t using uBlock Origin, which you just have to update the filters on.
Complete waste of effort.
Alphabet needs to be broken up.
I left waaaaay back when they decided that everyone had to have their shitty launchers and logins and basically turned into Autodesk.
I deal with one Autodesk at a time. And it’s Autodesk.
Okay, that’s one video. Now do the 1500 or so others with minimal information.
His videos have devolved to the level of a low effort shitpost.
I miss when LPL’s videos contained actual information.
Every video for a couple of years now is the same thing.
Go back a few years and you’ll see the difference. The channel is really just two minute ads for his shop now.
But I thought the open nature of open source meant it was safe because someone has checked all code everywhere!
This shit has become tedious.
So github is untrustworthy now.
And again you’re arguing in favor of walled gardens. Fucking hypocritical imbeciles. Anything to keep your precious fucking OS free from criticism, right?
Only in Linux Land would “daily desktop tips” include “REINSTALL YOUR ENTIRE SYSTEM FOR SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FEATURES.”
Unless you’re Ubuntu, apparently.
That is cause you’re using a stable release distro.
No. That’s because the latest version of the software has some incompatibility with the distro that the distro devs can’t be arsed to fix. If you’re not aware of how often this happens then YOU are the one that clearly doesn’t actually use Linux on a daily basis.
Oh look, I can make blind assertions about your lack of knowledge too.
Nobody is doing that, except maybe Ubuntu
WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK WE ARE TALKING ABOUT YOU ILLITERATE COW-FELLATER?
well wouldn’t you know it there 100000 distros more you can choose
Yeah, sure, just completely reinstall your entire system because one fucking dev doesn’t like having to deal with users installing .deb files. Goddamn Linux apologists are morons sometimes. It’s like you’ve never actually used a computer you HAVE to use. They’re just your masturbation tools and nothing more.
lesser known or has bad support for Linux.
So the majority of software, you mean. Have you even fucking been to github.com? Do you think every one of those programs is in a repository? DO YOU FUCKING KNOW HOW ANYTHING WORKS OUTSIDE OF YOUR PRECIOUS WALLED PACKAGE MANAGER GARDEN?
In 2023 almost everything someone needs is in the repos of distros like Mint and Debian.
Says you, and who the fuck are you besides nobody?
Certainly everything for the type of user that is too lazy to Google anything.
Again, a cunt blaming the user for a distro removing options. Fuck off.
I’m sorry, are we talking about shit that users do or are we talking about masturbatory sysadmin jizzcup filler? Because it seems like you’re not paying attention to the conversation, which is that Ubuntu doesn’t even let users install .deb packages through the fucking package manager.
“Provided you choose the right distro.”
Yeah. Windows or MacOS if you actually want to do shit.
EDIT
Just wanted to mention, I’ve never had an issue with Windows or MacOS that wasn’t directly caused by my own personal fuckery. Somehow though, I’ve had multiple Linux distro installs decide to hose themselves because they didn’t update through the precious fucking package manager properly. You know, the thing that everyone is now shitting on users for not using?
The most fun one was whenever a Debian update decided that the right thing to do was move my primary drive into a subfolder in /etc. Yeah. That fucking happened.
Goalpost moving fuck.
Not there to make a profit? Then why the fuck do all of the major distros have donation pages, and shops, and foundations, and all of the other things that generate money for a handful of people? Stop fucking acting like mainstream Linux distros are still Slackware equivalent one-man operations. That’s horseshit and you fucking know it.
Those repos are nowhere near vast as shit. It’s trivial to find software that isn’t one or more of them, and quite often what is there isn’t remotely a recent version.
Removing the ability to install .debs is literally limiting user choice and walling things off so the user doesn’t hurt themselves, the same shit that every fucking Linux knob has been squealing about Windows and MacOS doing for decades.
Can you do that with Windows or MacOS?
Yes, I can in fact download programs that aren’t on the Windows or Mac app stores. Are you even paying attention here?
Yes, by the shit-tier decisions of the distro developers.
UBUNTU IS A PRODUCT. IT MAKES PROFIT. MARKET SHARE IS HOW THEY MAKE MONEY FOR DEVELOPMENT.
Or did you not even bother reading the fucking headline?
Or were you too busy moving the goalposts to even do that?
“Oh look, this software isn’t available in the selection that Fedora/Ubuntu/Mint/whatever decided I should have. I guess I can’t install it despite the fact that there are compatible packages for my distro.”
Yeah right. Walled garden horseshit. Linux apologists do anything they can to move goalposts, to the point where using it is fucking impossible if you actually listen to every asshole’s personal opinion.
If you can’t adapt to the user’s behavior YOU are in the wrong. End of fucking story.
And seriously, you’re using an app store to illustrate why limiting user choice is good. What the actual fuck are you doing on a Linux sub anyway?
Something that worked last week now does not work.
System issue. Suck less shit at systems and maybe people in general would give a shit about Linux.
That will absolutely include government accounts.
Google would get instagibbed.
