    I think the “Ubuntu Core 22” means it is the snap based version of Steam rather than the deb version.

    If you look at the snapcraft.yaml for the Steam snap, it uses core22 as its base.

    One of the last conversations I had on Reddit was with a guy complaining about how crap Linux is, that he installed Ubuntu and the desktop didn’t even work, it went straight to a terminal, and after some prodding he said that he couldn’t even get APT to work, and it hit me: “You didn’t install Ubuntu Core, their embedded OS version, did you?” No response.

          Vector databases as the data foundation for generative AI applications

          is what I see when I go to ubuntu.com on mobile. Seriously? Where is the ISO Canonical?! Why do I have to open the menu and choose Products -> Ubuntu OS -> Ubuntu Desktop to reach the ISO?

            The money comes from corporate customers, that’s the sad truth. If you go to RedHat’s website, their Worsktation option is hidden in menus as well. Fedora doesn’t seem to be mentioned at all.

          I politely disagree. Finding the Core ISO is harder than the Server/Desktop ones. https://ubuntu.com/download/core

          There’s a Build Your Core button. And that takes you to a docs page that lets you download a pre-built image. I think it’s pretty obvious that this is not the Desktop Ubuntu.

    Why is arch at the top tho? Apparently Steam OS is its own point, are those the Steam OS clones also based on Arch? Or maybe, people just accepted the superiority of Arch (/s)

      I’ve seen arch gain a lot of popularity lately, at least in my circles.

        I changed friends to mainly the ones here on lemmy, specifically the german communities, and I was surprised that there’s an actual kinda cult here, just by the germans/ich_iel’ers, with it’s own community, and also a lot of members in Matrix. So I didn’t really see people switch to arch, but rather I changed friends to the much more nerdy type where arch is more common.

    I have fedora server edition set up headless primarily to host docker containers and have a noVNC headless steam streaming container on it, does that count?
