ads in the terminal lol. back in 2009 I was a gentoo user and was distro shopping. looked at fedora Debian Ubuntu and arch and settled on Debian.

I don't remember if ubunto had either snap or unity back then... but I saw Ubunto as mainly making Debian easier to use. I was coming from Gentoo... debian was already easy to use 🙂

now, I use arch btw. switched in 2019 (mainly cause I got new hardware and needed latest releases and latest bugs 🙂)

I don’t think snap existed in 2009? ~~But yeah Unity was the desktop iirc.~~ Edit now I’m not sure about unity either.

Unity didn't but its predecessor Netbook Launcher did.
