A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Using Ubuntu may give off hipster vibes to the average PC user, but within the Linux community its has the opposite effect. (slrpnk.net)

hot take?

Edit: got nothing against Ubuntu, it's Linux after all and that's what matters 🌻 Edit2: people took this very seriously for being a shower thought..

I used to use Ubuntu up to 12.04. By the time the support ended, the new versions had the Unity desktop, I didn't like it, so for a while I switched to Crunchbang (may it rest in peace), and now I'm using Mint Cinnamon. Some of my developers are using Ubuntu with Unity. Everyone is free to pick what suits them; I'm not one to judge them.

Ubuntu is back to GNOME now.

But GNOME itself is odd now. Or unfamiliar at least.
