If you install Ubuntu already your fine.

Personally I don’t want to spend time working on my computer (that’s work me), so I use mint. Just about any flavor of Linux can have a basic development env configuration done.

I use the same soap for washing my floors as for washing me. However I don’t use it’s toothpaste function. Dr Brokers is amazing.

IMO there are two main Linux camps, and most users fall somewhere in-between. Rolling OS lovers who want to tinker (eg Arch). People who want stability over everything (eg Debian).

The only truly wrong answer is paying for RHEL.

Oh God. Story time.

I had an important CICD pipeline that published a dinky little web-thing that was important for customer experience. The first line of the final docker file was from company-node:base. I had all the source code. I had all the docker files. At no point was there ever a container named company-node let alone a tag of base.

The one and only version of this container was on the CICD server.

It’s not going away. But I could see someone smart figuring out isolation.

Frankly it all three are logical next steps. With the way windows is going, valve needs to decouple it’s store from the windows dependency. The deck was the tester, now we get the not so cheep next generation
