I've got maybe a dozen servers that have been on 20.04 for a week or two. So far, been really good.

I am surprised you would put servers on the beta version.

@IRJ Did you choose a normal or minimal installation?

IMO minimal for workstation usage is pretty useless and makes more work unless you have your setup scripted or managed already.

We do minimal because there's little need for most of those apps.

Having a minimal option is awesome for those who don't need any of the extra applications.

The ones that they tend to include are more consumer than work related. We tend to want to remove most, and sometimes add none back. Some things that we almost always want, like Remmina, I don't think are included anyway.

Remmina is included with the normal install.

Are you managing everything through Salt? That's also a great reason to do a minimal install and just have Salt take care of the rest for you.
