      @dbeato You arent a fan of apparmor? Neither am I. At least selinux can be installed on deb/ubu rather easily.

          I knew about selinux way before I knew about apparmor.

            What's the reason for Ubuntu not having firewall enabled by default these days?

                UFW is enabled on Ubuntu by default.

                    It is supposed to be incoming deny and outgoing allow.

                      Don't like the desktop really, but I actually quite like the server edition.

                        Really like what I'm reading here and the other threads/community...but I'm still a linux newbie (for several years)..I do not claim to know it all or anything to be advanced, but has stuck with what we have here (Ubuntu server) which I know enough on how to manage.

                        On the desktop side, I've had it in my personal laptop which is now decommissioned due to hardware failure. I actually liked the desktop (have not tried other ones though...aside from Windows 🤣 ).

                          My default is normally CentOS no real reason apart from it's what I've always used. But as I'm a newbie as such with Linux if the install guide shows Ubuntu then I'll use that.

                            I'm with you here. While I know Ubuntu isn't the favoured distro here, there is SO much documentation out there that it was the easiest for me to begin learning Linux and it's been a huge help getting me out of the Windows comfort zone. I've just now started down the path of other distros.

                              Although it needs way more documnetation that some others 😉

                              One of the reasons that I dislike Ubuntu is that their own docs weren't correct and information was not reliable.

                                No thanks on Ubuntu. I prefer Fedora for workstations and CentOS/RHEL for servers. I haven't tried Fedora on servers but have needed more stability and less bleeding edge features. Curious to start trying it out as a server instance in a lab though.

                                  Fedora is not bleeding edge, that's not the right way to think of it. It's just current, if anything, I'd say that it is probably the more stable of the two. CentOS is "old", not "stable". The two are not the same thing. CentOS is for specific cases where you need to maintain unchanging libraries - not something you ideally want. We specifically want Fedora for better stability over CentOS.

                                    The way I've been using CentOS and Fedora. Is that I would use Fedora by default unless there some weird setup that can break easily because of upgrading to a new version of Fedora or requires more effort to get it working correctly.

                                        Would you consider the same for Ubuntu? Latest Ubuntu release, LTS as a fallback?

                                          I only use Ubuntu in a must use case scenario, i.e. a vendor requires it. Then I always use the latest release. I always upgrade to the latest release.

                                            Absolutely. Ubuntu LTS is just for bad situations that you have to fix by not properly maintaining your OS.
