Yeah. The worst part is that things it’s supposed to protect against like applying a bad config doesn’t work half the time. I’ve run the test command before and it just buggered the box until I made a drive.
Oh yeah and they recently (at least witb Ubuntu) chnaged their default for DHCP from using a MAC address to a UUID for the dhcp identifier. Which is amazing if you use dhcp reservations because suddenly your box is just off on another IP.
Netplan is 100% a solution that didn’t have a problem to begin with
Honestly, if Ubuntu hadn’t pushed snaps so damned hard, I’d probably still be running Ubuntu. I don’t hate them. But… They’re just obnoxious. Honestly, I wish Flatpaks and Appimages weren’t pushed so hard on other distros too. But, such is life.
Lynx doesn’t support Javascript. Links ( http://links.twibright.com/ ) is marginally more usable, but still has no Javascript, and I wouldn’t want it as a daily driver either. Text-mode browsers just can’t handle Web 2.0 (although, to be honest, I’m not that fond of Web 2.0).
vi, lynx, mutt, and of course X11 > wayland
though also controversially, I’ll take systemD over sysVinit
My distaste for systemd has been replaced by my distaste for netplan.
I hadn’t heard of it, so I looked it up, and…WTF? Systemd-networkd with extra steps? Systemd-networkd does not need extra steps!

This does not surprise me from a company that, well… * gestures distastefuly at snaps *

I quite like systemd and netplan. Though the latter I can live without.
Is lynx worth using? How does JavaScript work? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynx_(web_browser)

urxvt is also relevant for this combo.
