    That would definitely be valid for a smaller community supported distro like mint, but canonical is a big company that already has kind of a bad reputation for things like that so I think it was reasonable for people to complain

      A big company eh? They’re about 20 times smaller than Red Hat. They very much depend on Debian and the larger FOSS community to get their OS built.

      I’ve been on this train since 2004 and I’ve been paying attention. Not all but a lot of the flak they’ve been getting over the years has been based on misinformation and ignorance. But trying to get things objective and correct doesn’t make for a good flame war.
