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.

I didn't downvote it, but I really didn't like the video. It goes like "the things that are problems in Linux" and then starts talking about an extremely customized system, from DE to kernel, to audio...
I don't think he gets, in general at least, to explain why those are needed, just how complex it all is. It would have been more interesting to say "this are the problems with an out of the box distro, and the hurdles it took me go fix each one".
Mind you, this doesn't mean I think a fresh install of Ubuntu can perfectly work for him. But knowing what didn't work and why might be more helpful for people considering the same
That's really fair criticism. More YouTubers should take such an approach. Surely it's nicer to see people supporting you rather than trying to stoke up fake outrage.
