FuckUbuntu.com

FuckUbuntu.com where just launched by a site called Perfect Failure. As the Website's author puts it:

I grabbed FuckUbuntu.com today. I am SO sick of reading about this shitty distro on Digg.

Don't get me wrong, I think that it's great that Windows users are being drawn into the Linux realm. But

The fanboyism is out of control.


And he definitely does have a point. Ubuntu have become a Linux safe-word. If you add Ubuntu in your blog posting or forum thread you are almost guarantied more and faster replies, mostly be Ubuntu fan boys.

Google Trends can chart up for us that the search term Linux have gradually lost weight and that Ubuntu slowly have gain search users interest.

Currently the domain only points to a perfect failure, but I sent him a suggestion to make it a real Ubuntu-Digg-effect hater site. I wonder whether he will do so or not…

@toxik
Your just a fucking looser who loves a fucking looser distro. Shut the fuck up. Ubuntu users are all just sheep. When someone else is hot and new they will just flock to that distro. deep down Ubuntu users aren't loyal.

I'm sick of Ubuntu just because it's trying to be Apple. I do not want my fucking software to try to outsmart me. *glares at HAL and AVAHI*

I am sorry to hear about your bad experiences with Linux. But it is well known that Windows programs—especially games—does not run on anything but the operating system they were written for. However: You should consider dual booting.

That way, you could stay safe and sound on a Linux system; but also have a Windows installation ready for gaming and commercial software. I know this is how many gamers do it. You get just about everything but the games for Windows on Linux.

Ubuntu is trying to be Mac OS and Windows, and is failing in doing so. Other distributions does a better job of being Linux desktops; but are not as compatible and easy to install. (Not that the latter is what makes a Linux desktop.) You may want to consider using another distribution.

Thanks for visiting the Open Source Notebook.

If you want Linux games, you will have to talk to the software companies developing the Windows‐only games. I hope this helps.

Guys give it a break… Ms Vs Linux is getting very old now. At the end of the day it's just an OS! So what if some one's tastes differ? Really? I've never been out shopping and found one brand of toothpaste supporter bitching at another…

Linux is a shit. There's no Photoshop equivalent. Gimp is a joke!

Comment by Why at 2008-07-31 @872.

Sure, let us doom an entire operating system based on the unmet needs of one individual!

Comment by Daniel Aleksandersen at 2008-07-31 @904.

Daniel is right. all the people calling linux shit are just trying their hardest to find something to hate on. if u don't like it don't use it! i think ubuntu is a good distro.
windows is a big rip to some people. windows vista home premium cost $239.99 on best buy and circuit city. ubuntu if free.

Comment by ims harder at 2008-08-01 @894.

well im having ubuntu hardy and im really starting to hate it nothing working like it should and the whole os freezes when trying to play something with it. Ubuntu forums gives only crap to read. Stay win xp if u dont wanna end up beating the whole pc up… wine sucks and u have to pay for using cedega ehrmm wtf pay for play a free game… kubuntu opensuse and madriva are sucking ass too . linux just is a fail os.

Comment by risu (Subscribed) at 2008-10-13 @656.

Indeed! FUCK YOU UBUNTU. Ubuntu is shit, and Ubuntu users are morons. Go back to windows or buy a mac you fucking retards. Why does Ubuntu suck?

1) They try to overshadow Linux. "What's that you're running?" "Oh it's Ubuntu". NO MORON. FUCK YOU!!! It's a cheap pirate ripoff of Debian GNU+Linux. EMPHASIS ON THE GNU+LINUX. Ubuntu is not worth of its own name.

2) They come up with their own cliquey apps. Oh, this is a program for Ubuntu. NO, DICK WEED. YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED to make a program just for Ubuntu. And for trying, FUCK YOU. GO BACK TO WINDOWS. If it doesn't work in 90% of the other distros, it's not a program, it's blasphemy.

3) DEB HELL. 'nuff said

4) Of all the GNU+Linux users I know personally, the Ubuntu users are by FAR, the most disappointing and stupid.

5) QUIT MASTURBATING the "community", and write usable code.

6) Oh, how cute. A pretty font on my getty. GROW UP.

7) Go up to a ubuntu user, and ask them what's different between two different versions of Ubuntu BESIDES THE WALLPAPER.

I will sooner buy a MAC than run UBUNTU. DIE ALREADY YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!!

I wouldn't know because I don't use Windows, but I'll take your word on that. However; it doesn't matter what windows costs because nobody buys windows. They get it for free on the computer they just bought. So "I'm getting $239 for free" and that's a lot better in peoples' minds than "I'm getting $0 for free".

And again; nobody buys windows. One dude downloads it off Bit Torrent, and shares it with a hundred friends. Or one dude buys it, and installs it company wide. Anyone intelligent to install software, let alone and OS, is smart enough to use bit torrent. Windows isn't sold. It's a give-away, and practically /as/ gratis as Linux. So that argument of "ooh, Windows costs money! Goodness I can't spend money now can I?" is complete and utter bullshit and only reveals that you need to get a god damned job!

Fuck Wind0ze, fuck you Bill Gates, fuck deb/*buntu shit and fuck Steve Ballmer !

OpenBSD / Gentoo / Slackware are the best Operating Systems I've ever had.

And one more thing: Fuck .NET, PHP and SCO !

I agree with previous comments about incompatibility. I tried Linux for the first time today, running Ubuntu 8.10 on a dual-boot on my XP laptop.

What a joke! The wireless card doesn't work and needs some ridiculously long workaround that requires you to become a programming expert; the Nvidia driver won't install properly; there's not even an MP3 codec included, I mean wtf?!?

I'm really disappointed. I thought I was going to get a nice new alternative OS but all I got was a bunch of problems that no-one seems to know how to fix despite trawling a ton of geek forums. When I can install Linux and EVERYTHING works straight away then I might be persuaded, but until then I'm sticking with XP.

Comment by Disappointed at 2009-01-24 @992.

Fucken Ubuntu wont fucken install on any machine. What the fuck is going on with it. I read its been gong on for years then why the fuck havent they fixed it.

Comment by Carl at 2009-01-31 @601.

Ha Ha Fucken Fedora works yeeeeeepeeeeee

Comment by Carl at 2009-02-01 @286.

I have to agree with the ubuntu haters, i personally use an 08 XPS running vista with no problems yet, but i know there are some …anyway back my ubuntu problem……….i also purchased a dell mini 9 with "preloaded not bought" ubuntu software. it is so terrible, the mini has so many issues now its not even funny, i would like to slap the shit out of the person responsible for creating such a worthless piece of software. When i login i as the admin and try to do lets say…wireless network for example…it tells me access denied, must be an admin to perform this task…i am the admin. wtf!!! oh lets not forget the automatic updates.. it shows 169 updates available but when i try to install it errors out everytime and have tried several different sites to download the updates from.So in my opinion, i hate ubuntu and wouldnt recommend it to my worst enemy!

Comment by jerry (Subscribed) at 2009-02-04 @319.

ubuntu is a great os for linux beginners. easy to use and install. if your more of a linux power user you will want to use what ever you have been using. i would still recommend ubuntu for newbie's that being said, most of the people who posted are idiots. please read a book on linux open source e rules.

Comment by bob dole at 2009-02-11 @125.

Ubuntu is certainly not the best OS for gamers.Far from it. On the other hand it has proven to be an excellent option for business applications. After some two years using the various Ubuntu and Open Office versions, we are now running 50 plus computers with Intrepid and Open Office 3.0. No problems and no cost. Everything works.
The downside is that before buying the hardware, you have to do a little research regarding computer compatibility with the desired OS. The first time I installed Ubuntu, I made the mistake of assuming the OS could be installed on any computer and that it would simply require a little tweaking to benefit from the full functionality of the system. I was wrong. The reason for this I found, was that some component manufacturers were not producing the needed drivers or code for Linux (or in my case the Ubuntu OS). Even though my first installation didn't produce optimum results, I saw enough to do the research and choose a more appropriate hardware configuration and the result today is nothing short of stellar. If your responsibilities include driving cost efficiencies and productivity in a business application environment, then this is pure genius. If you are still living with your parents, those considerations do not apply.

8.04 is what I've been using. it is SHITE.

things just stop working !
- java, flash,sound cards you name it.

. click response is about 5 seconds on the main menu on a dual core machine with 2 gig of ram !- what the hell are these goons doing. -They clearly are just not trying !

I'm trying to use the studio distro which is loaded with audio software. Promises so much but delivers fuck-all.

I've had enough of it. what a load of bollocks.

Just make things work, or don't bother !

- I can handle a crash or two in windows, doing new things or pushing it too hard- because the rest of the time it is allowing me to work, but the basic stuff on ubuntu simply doesn't function.

Sort it out you muppets !

Comment by Barry at 2009-02-25 @745.

kubuntu is a peice of shit, say what you want about windows everthing works without spend time fixing it. people want to sit and use their computer not to become an expert or geek. fuck ubuntu!

Comment by bobby findlay at 2009-03-17 @098.

You guys are all pretty upset. I use my 360 to game and 8.10 ubuntu for my laptop and it works great and i'm not a linux genius. So much anger in the room.

Comment by chad at 2009-03-20 @334.

So wait.

You hate Ubuntu because it works out of the box and is easier to use than any other shitty Linux distro?

Yet Windows users hate Ubuntu because it doesn't work out of the box and is hard to use compared to Windows?

Comment by Shuttleworth at 2009-03-22 @177.

Oh, look it seems that we have around us a Shuttleworth clone, or are you the real one?

Anyway, it doesn't matter, cause I'm gonna explain why the hell I hate Ubuntu. And the Why is the big deal.

1. Every time Ubuntu is released every fucken asshole with a geek-like blog has to fucken tell every one that Ubuntu is out, Ubuntu did this, Ubuntu is that, Ubuntu is soo cool, Ubuntu fuckin Rocks, Ubuntu is the great, Ubuntu.
And no fucking body repares that are other distros coming out, and that's big time Bullshit.

2. Control Panel in Ubuntu? That doesn't exit! JAJA! It's soo easy, right? So, tell me HOW THE FUCK CAN I CHANGE MY GRAPHIC CARD DRIVER USING A GUI. 'Cause I cannot find it, so where is the EASY TO USE?

3. Big Repository of Software SOTOLLEN FROM DEBIAN, great, really you must be so fucking proud of your work. Doing a distro like that any fucking asshole without a brain can do that.

4. Every fucking review has to have the fucking Ubuntu. No other distros, just the shitty Ubuntu.

5. Stability? Thats only on Dual Cores, old machine users are FUCKED.

6. Xubuntu? Kubuntu? Nice joke, really.

7. And of course, Gobuntu, where the HELL IS THE 100% FREE UBUNTU? It's there but you have to look for it throught the god damn servers, and that's not fucking fair,

8. Hardware Compatiblity, extremely great! Oh, JUST WAIT! Second to EVERY OTHER FUCKIN' DISTRO!

9. Programs just for Ubuntu and Debian, with only DEB Packages, let me tell you my sweet developer friend: GO FUCK YOURSELF.

10. Every fucking release is exactly as the one before.

11. Works out of the BOX? No! THAT'S NOT UBUNTU. Thats Mandriva One or Linux Mint. Ubuntu doesn't do a shit out of the box that any other distro can't.

12. Fuck the fucking fuck countdowns every the fuck where, If I want to know where it's out I move my ass to Distrowatch, or to the Official Site.

13. Ubuntu Community Members are not at all educated nor polite, the majority are dickheads and retardeds. Fuckin Mastrubating Monkeys,

14. Canonical is the worst joke ever.

15. CD's at Zero Cost, I wana know for how long is that going to work, you rich bastards, Linux comunity never needed bastards giving no fuckin Free Cds.

16. Ubuntu is JUST DEBIAN WITH A COUPLE OF TRICKS, AND IS STILL LINUX, NOT BETTER THAN LINUX, Cause it's LINUX.

17. Ubuntu has no respect AT ALL for GNU. Gobuntu case is a perfect example.

Comment by tony at 2009-05-02 @544.

hey i got banned from #ubuntu on freenode for saying WTF

WTF?!

Frak ubuntu!

i'll go blue I guess

Comment by Mordred at 2009-05-29 @594.

@Chad

Every time Linux's gaming inadequacies are brought up, we can all count on the typical Zealot reponse of using a console to play games.

PC gaming > console gaming.

Comment by derChef at 2009-06-02 @186.

Ubuntu sucks… I did a dist-upgrade, sound broke. I was able to fix it, and the GUI had an HORRIBLE lag, without Compiz. I was able to run compiz flawlessly before… So I'm just in damn microcrap.

I wonder if similar things happen in Debian?
