Ubuntu 24.04 LTS delivers the latest Linux 6.8 kernel with improved syscall performance, nested KVM support on ppc64el, and access to the newly landed bcachefs filesystem. In addition to upstream improvements, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS has merged low-latency kernel features into the default kernel, reducing kernel task scheduling delays.
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS also enables frame pointers by default on all 64-bit architectures so that performance engineers have ready access to accurate and complete flame graphs as they profile their systems for troubleshooting and optimisation.
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS includes Python 3.12, Ruby 3.2, PHP 8.3 and Go 1.22 with additional focus dedicated to the developer experience for .NET, Java and Rust.
With the introduction of .NET 8, Ubuntu is taking a significant step forward in supporting the .NET community. NET 8 will be fully supported on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and 22.04 LTS for the entire lifecycle of both releases, enabling developers to upgrade their applications to newer .NET versions prior to upgrading their Ubuntu release. This .NET support has also been extended to the IBM System Z platform.

What’s wrong with using Ubuntu?
They’re pretty corporate and everyone likes bashing on it. In reality most people use Ubuntu.
I think most people definitely do at some point but I think a lot move on as well. But it’s definitely more popular than these kinds of forums would let you believe.
I definitely like a lot of things about Ubuntu, just disagree with some of Canonical’s choices.
I like Ubuntu
I disagree with Canonical too but in the end if people keep making up their own standards because they don’t like something we’re gonna get nowhere either.
