From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Generally a good idea to wait for the .1 release if you can for bugs to be ironed out. Another option to consider is running Ubuntu in a distrobox for the sw that needs it and then run whatever distro you like.
Appreciate the suggestions.
I have to run Ubuntu for our security software (Vanta), and I did thr upgrade early mostly hoping they'd finally ironed out the issues with the ipu7 camera on the Dell XPS 13 (9350).
It's otherwise fine (although I get a touch irrational about snaps...)
Which software do you need run Ubuntu for?
