Usually because they've tried Ubuntu and found it lacking.

Yeah, or a nosql database. The point is to know how to deploy and manage servers manually as well as using the tools to do it.

To give yourself a better chance, learn things like:

  • Bash scripting
  • Docker
  • Docker Compose
  • Kubernetes
  • Oauth2 and and an authorization server like Keycloak
  • Build and deployment tools like Jenkins

Also learn how to deploy database and web servers manually.

It sounds like a lot but they're things you'll be expected to use.

I'm not sure if it's niche but openSUSE Tumbleweed isn't as popular as it deserves to be. If you are looking for more niche, back in my distro hopping days I enjoyed Kaos and Solus

Turns out it doesn't work properly if you do let it

Cheesus, they can do better than that

On recent performance, no they can't. I mean, they had the chance to use Driftwood and went with Slowroll.

Microsoft sued Lindows because it was too similar to Windows (and lost)

SUSE provide a lot of the infrastructure for openSUSE and base their enterprise Linux from factory.

The last Windows I used was Windows 2000 Professional. I bought a new PC, didn't like XP so I switched to Linux full time as I'd been using it more and more anyway. Windows has only gotten worse since then so I've never looked back.

Thunderbird. Being on Plasma, I would use Kontact / KMail but it randomly refuses to send emails for me.
