10 things (and counting) that make Ubuntu a success

Here are 10 things that usually drive people to embrace Ubuntu instead of other GNU/Linux distributions.

As for me, these are the reasons why I dropped SuSE, Red Hat and Debian:

  • Ubuntu has apt-get. That’s thousands of applications that are easily managed by a single command or by a GUI if you’re into it.
  • Ubuntu has a wonderful community where everyone likes to help. Everyone’s nice and available.
  • Ubuntu’s rock-solid Debian-based. Besides having apt-get, Ubuntu has the stability of its ancestry, Debian
  • There are thousands of places to look for help. Forums, IRC, wikis, blogs, it’s endless
  • It’s fast

If you were thinking about giving a try to Ubuntu here’s your chance. You won’t regret.
