    Cannocial knows what they’re doing like Redhat. Many of the smaller distros are insecure because they’re run by a small group of volunteers who don’t entirely know what they’re doing.

      I’d imagine people would still prefer forks of Canonical’s work than the original source tho. That’s kind of Mint’s whole deal - Ubuntu, without the bullshit.

        Except I’m old and remember all the times Mint’s maintainers fucked up. Like a dosen other small forks of Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and Arch.

        Genius. All large business is evil and incompetent.

        Small problem, I wrote competent, not confident. As in a competent person would have noticed I typed “knows what they’re doing” and omitted Novel. Or know the security history of distros like mint.

        And Debian and Gentoo and OpenBSD and Arch and Alpine… Slackware.

        Lots of well run time tested OS projects out there.
