I love ubuntu too, I still can’t get my network set up, but its all good, I will figure it out. I was not able to make a network on suse or fedora either, so ubuntu is still my favorite.

It’s so funny to me to read this, and think about how I loved Ubuntu even though I could not get the internet to work for months

Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.
