Canonical’s announced a major shift in its kernel selection process for future Ubuntu releases. An “aggressive kernel version commitment policy” pivot will see it ship the latest upstream kernel code in development at the time of a new Ubuntu release.

Honestly just switch to Arch at this point, dare I say Arch is easier and users friendly than Ubuntu
No, please stop trying to fool Linux beginners into starting out with Arch.
It is actually easier and more friendly for more advanced and technical users. I switched to Arch from Ubuntu 12 years ago after dealing with yet another dependency hell and 3rd party repo breakage. I gave it a shot (which was easy as Arch had a tui installer back then) and was shocked how easy it is to get everything running the way I wanted it comparing to anything Debian-based.
Had the same journey. Thats the thing though, once you start with custom ppas and packages arch becomes much better. Today, users should largely pull in newer programs through snaps/appimage/flatpak, so I think it’s gotten better than it used to be.
For years i’ve tried different distros on and off. Really liked arch on the steam deck and decided to give it a try. Haven’t used windows in over a year. Don’t know what it was but I’m loving arch with kde. Had a couple of things i had to figure out but all in all it was simple to get going.
I started with endeavoros. Arch is fine for beginners the install is the only hard part
No I don’t, I’m only using arch for 5 months and I basically already know how to get around the os even managed to fix every problems with the help of arch wiki and I can get every softwares I want from the AUR pretty easy but on Ubuntu sometime I had to add repositories to download some softwares also Arch is truly maintained by the community and Ubuntu is mostly Canonical and community
And how long did you use other non-Arch Linux distros before then?
Arch maybe a great distro, but it’s not a beginner friendly one.
