I get a kick out of the extensions I can add, particularly Burn my Windows - who thinks up this stuff? And the variety and number of apps is nearly endless. Sometimes I think, oh, I'll never find anything to do that as in Windows and then, doggone, someone has gone and done it. And every time I try switching to a new distro I end up back with Ubuntu. My only peeve is Snap - it wants to control my computer and change screen proportions, but I have found a way to strip it out of Ubuntu and Firefox. My only fear is that someday Ubuntu will become dependent on snap and I will have to look elsewhere like at Mint or Pop! Was this review helpful? Yes No Version: 24.04 Rating: 10 Date: 2026-03-06 Country: Norway Votes: 27 I have been using Ubuntu 24.04 with GNOME for some time now. Previously, I have used Ubuntu 18.04. 1. The install process was great, and everything worked out of the box. I know that just after the release of 24.04 there was some problems, but I always wait a few months when installing releases. Loved the new installer. It got everything right (including drivers) 2. I must say I love the GNOME implementation Ubuntu has. It is my favourite. I only reduce the size of the panel to 34, and all is good 3. Ubuntu Pro is a decisive factor. Getting extra security for free and over time is a blessing, and I plan to run 24.04 for many years. The less change, the better 4. I get almost all my software from apt and add trusted soruces to apt (sources.list.d was new to me), so I don't mind the few Snaps installed by Canonical. They can of course be trusted. Also, you can install Flatpak if that is your preference. You have the coice of where to get your additional software. If you cannot survive having a few snaps from a trusted source on your machine, find a different distro My overall experience of Ubuntu 24.04 is good. I give it a 10 because of its simple install, extra security for free and the fact that everything works. Was this review helpful? Yes No See all 382 reader reviews of Ubuntu...
