    Canonical gets shit canned by a lot of people, you can look up why but it’s mainly unpopular snap (slow/forced upon ye) and Canonical being a shit. I mean I’d personally rank flatpak dead last under snap because of rancid permissions issues, but whatever.

    If you end up liking the Debian soul however, you got a lot of options :) Personally I only really care about the repo being well stocked and up to date whatever the distro.

      So far I ran into difficulty installing software because of missing dépendances but it didn’t state what they were.

        My path was Fedora (dnf) to CachyOS (pacman) so I’ll not be much help with Debian apt package manager shenanigans. Probably you can solve whatever that issue is with the Ubuntu “package name” (saying what it is specifically will help) followed by “missing dependencies” in a web search.

        Might only need to run the system update 1st:

        sudo apt update

        sudo apt upgrade

        Then try your problematic package again (or wait for a Debian wizard to chime in). Maybe your iso was outdated or something.
