I was a Ubuntu Desktop user until recently have been from the free CDs in bulk days.. sadly Canonical over the years has lost the plot and it is the harsh truth..The current desktop has become garbage and stale and also has practically remained stagnant with only the names and numbers changing. There has been ZERO innovation from canonical on the desktop distribution front the thing that got them famous in the first place. Ubuntu touch is already dead and Mr. Mark Shuttleworth and Canonical need to accept this hard hitting fact.. not a single famous android application developer finds the platform interesting for porting their applications. They should follow the footsteps of Firefox who shut down the Gecko on Phone project to concentrate on their main offering the browser experience. There was a time when Ubuntu had showcased Android apps running on Desktop.. sending SMS, Replying from the desktop.. That felt like true convergence between android and linux.. I hope they go back to getting something like that to work and improving their desktop.
Till then its good bye to Ubuntu and Canonical..! Fedora with Plasma 5 is my new innovative home.
