I switched from Ubuntu to Mint a few years ago while Canonical was rolling out Unity, because I found (and still find) the idea of a unified interface for PC, phone, tablet, and whatever the hell else, to be utterly absurd. Metro and Unity are in the same boat, as far as I'm concerned.

For those here using Ubuntu, has it gotten any better? Note that I did try Unity when it was first coming out and I hated it, so if you loved it then and are recommending it based on that I probably won't agree. I want to know, has it changed for the better?
