Makes sense to me. Most people probably don’t want the hassle of having to upgrade a non lts release. I’m still on 22.04 on the machine I use for work.
Wondering why you would use a non lts version?
If anyone does, I would like to know.
Main thing I care about is having the latest version of Gnome. Otherwise I use flatpaks for all my apps.
Why not use a rolling release distro?
I actually use Fedora Silverblue, not Ubuntu. But I still maintain the snap because it’s really easy to do and I like the app.
Aurora user here! Loving it so far, still got a lot to learn about doing desktop in containers…
I have considered using one because a few bugs or missing features I encounter are caused by older versions of a software (e.g. old version of imagemagick not supporting animated AVIF) and I want to stick to the stable official packages instead of custom builds or PPAs. But I remain on LTS.
What kind of snap? If it’s something that servers are more likely to use, for example, that could bring an interesting bias to the results.
LocalSend. A cross platform app similar to AirDrop.
I’m wondering if the numbers are different for flatpaks.
you don’t want to know how old are the OS releases we use at work.
