Nah, I customise my windows gui to look like kde, then post my vnc login on stack exchange to zero-click install everything.

I think opinionated is different from being for a non-power-user.

Click ‘brave’ is not opinionated, because I could click chromium instead. “There is a web browser (and it is Firefox)” is more opinionated, and easier at first, then harder if you happen to need a chromium-based browser.

what would happen to distribution X if Canonical suddeny made Ubuntu closed-source?

I believe Linux Mint has done some planning for if Ubuntu does something like that - probably to rebase off Debian in that case

Thank you! I just want to say, I’ve also been curious about ipv6 every now and again for a long time, and this thread has helped me to understand more.
