They've lost the plot. I don't mind change if it has meaningful benefits, but forcing unstable and barely-tested coreutils that fail their own tests is madness.
Also Canonical was named and shamed by people trying to get jobs as the poster child of everything wrong with tech recruiting in [current year].
Eventually installed from the PPA but it was an unexpected PITA.
They had me do an automated IQ test, specified I had to do it in my native language, and it turned out it had been machine translated with some tools that was decades old, so I didn't understand anything at all.
I am sure they've also blacklisted me because I get autorejected since then.
I'm also a Debian Developer so I don't have any relevant experience that could be useful in working at Canonical.
Where do you see anything wrong with their process?
This summer I have migrated all our production and development servers to Debian. Because absolutely and sincerely fuck rust coreutils, sudo-rs, systemd-* and the other virtue signaling projects.
