I think this is where I'll be going after a good 15 years with Ubuntu.
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.

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.
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?
