Re: I'd love to upgrade

Stick with 14.04.4 man. This is the most disappointing LTS release ever. QA is completely down the toilet.

Most of the problems are from upstream, though canonical don't seem to have done any work to smooth the rough edges and integrate with Unity.

Systemd isn't even my biggest cause for concern. The Gnome devs have continued their insane and arrogant vision to build a unified touch interface, for a platform I'm not convinced has ANY touch screen users. Work-flows broken, mouse travel times vastly increased.

I'm not sure where to go from here. This time I recompiled one Gnome app, and switched to alternatives for others, but I don't feel like fighting the defaults forever. After all, the whole appeal of Ubuntu for me was that I'm lazy, and the defaults were "good enough".
