That post was written by Matthew Garrett, and he has written many similar posts against Ubuntu over the years. His previous rant was about the snaps in Ubuntu. That they are not fu…

That person from OVH is a character. You can install an "Ubuntu" on OVH, but the kernel is a modified kernel. When you try to install standard services that are meant to work with …

This guy tries to confuse people about this and at the end what will remain is a negative impression on Ubuntu. The whole "story" is just an interpretation of his about some wordin…

This is Matthew Garrett (mjg59), and he has a hate against the Ubuntu project that goes back several years. The way he works is that he finds something that he interprets as questi…

The author of that article says "I know from personal experience that today [2005] Microsoft takes application compatibility very seriously". And if you want to install Windows on …

For a not-too-heavy user, the phone is fine as it is now. The system updates in April fixed the battery issues. Cannot imagine what you have been doing to the phone to crash five t…

There is a third bq phone with Ubuntu expected in 2015. That phone will be the convergence phone.

The Meizu MX4 is expected to be released to Europe pretty soon. It has 4G. Obviously, it will be significantly more expensive than the E5.

The author of Mer is unhappy with Ubuntu and this looks more like an attack than a constructive post. MediaTek is now contributing directly to the Linux kernel. Those header files …
