They're not really following the philosophy I expect to see a unix-like OS, so my experience also wasn't great. Like turning logs into a binary format, and then later bugging out on it so when you try to read it with their convoluted command (where cat or less was sufficient in the past) it gave errors on its own mess and refused to display anything.
Bugs happen, that's understandable, but simply the fact that they turn logs into a binary format shows their philosophy is different than the one I expect from a unix-like OS.
And almost all distros are following them sadly...
