Can't judge a product by "market share." Otherwise, there would be no hope for open source or Linux. I don't choose products/services based on popularity. I try really hard to choose on the basis of what I need and how well that product or service fills that need. Chrome is dominate and its spyware. "Markets" today don't really function the way we are taught they work. I have a great deal of respect for the Mozilla Foundation. Its funny to me that most of the people making videos like this use Firefox or a variant. Its hard out here when you are not a trillion dollar company. Let's make more videos showing how to support the Mozilla and other projects who are struggling to maintain people centered values in a market based industry. At this point (2024) these videos seem to be punching down.

Mozilla doesn't listen to its users and loyal users. They remove features their users use. They redesign the UI every few years supposedly to make it easier to use, but in reality it makes the browser less accessible. When they make unnecessary changes, Mozilla displays the attitude of "if you don't like the changes, then use another browser" So, people do. I wonder if Mozilla even cares about their users as long as they're getting that sweet Google money each year.

Making a "rise and fall" video about Ubuntu with only a few years of use? That's a bold claim. As someone who's been using Ubuntu for two decades, I can confidently say it's thriving. Let's not forget Ubuntu's role in making Linux accessible, which is a major reason for its current success. It's everywhere, powering a significant portion of the internet, even this platform we're using. Criticisms exist, of course. Unity wasn't universally loved at the time howver people ironically want it back now, and the Amazon integration wasn't ideal (though data was supposedly anonymized). However, Ubuntu actively innovates, and that deserves praise. Support the pioneers of Linux, They're all crucial to the ecosystem's growth, and diversity is a strength. Let's focus on fostering a positive and constructive environment, not negativity. Ubuntu is great, most people just parrot a comment they read on Reddit.

I remember trying out Ubuntu in 2004. I still use Ubuntu as my primary Linux distro. Not because it's the 'best' out there, but I'm very comfortable with Ubuntu and Debian. Ubuntu certainly has had its ups and downs. The auto-sending of search terms to Amazon wasn't good.

I'm sad you glossed over WHY it's called Ubuntu. Ubuntu is SUCH a great name for open source. It's a South African term which loosely translates to "I am because we are" and it's a catch all term to express human community. It's so fitting and sort of fate in a way, that the most used Linux distro is "Ubuntu" and open source, free to community "i exist because you exist" ideology.
