The introduction of a "minimal install" mode in the Ubuntu installer has been one of the distro's best-received features in years. When selected during

    Dear liberals, you claim you installed “minimal” Ubuntu, yet you use GNOME instead of XFCE. Curious.

      I like bling but I don’t like bloat on my hard drive. Checkmate mister.

        So you installed GNOME? This is not the checkmate you think it is.

          I think the fact that you’re so bothered by me using default GNOME but wanting to pick my own apps is reason enough to keep it. Cry more about my personal decisions 😄

            I’m bothered by the fact that you made a statement that’s not internally consistent and contradicts itself. Like whatever you like, but if you’re going to cite a reason, be accurate. Don’t be so dense.

              How is “GNOME is bloat” an objective fact? Maybe to you GNOME is bloat because you don’t use it. But they use GNOME, so it’s not bloat to them.

              Conversely, if they don’t use XFCE, then having XFCE installed by default is a bloat to them.

              Don’t be so dense.

              It’s clear you don’t hang around many people if you expect everyone to make zero mistakes.

      GNOME isn’t inherently bloated, though; the GNOME circle apps may ne bloat if you don’t need them. Liberals? Where!?

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.
