Ubuntu has gotten rid of an important tool. 

Adios! Says Ubuntu to The Software and Updates Tool

Removed because it was deemed too complex and dangerous for normies.

It's FOSS (itsfoss.com)

#linux #ubuntu

@itsfoss They keep shooting themselves in the foot like complete fools if you ask me. Idk what they think ‍️

@itsfoss I just remembered this meme this is true

@itsfoss I don't really use this or know anyone who does lol. If you use Linux and can't manage your repos without a gui, you probably shouldn't be given a fast and loose way to do it in the first place.

@itsfoss Ubuntu is a disgrace among Linux distros, Canonical wants to be Microsoft 2.0 basically

@itsfoss ummm then just put the problematic features behind an "advanced users" checkbox??

uBlock Origin does this quite well.

This seems like another sledgehammer to crack a nut situations.... I'm glad I moved to Artix but I still know ppl who use Ubuntu, as well as my servers..... but the latter doesn't seem affected here..
