+11Here’s mine:
I always use Ubuntu 20.04 LTS for my hardened repos. It is so easy to deploy and manage that!

+21Use Ubuntu 20.04 for Hardened Repos with XFS and starting to use them as Proxies now as well in v11a since the transport modes are same as Windows.

+23Love this! I remember first using Ubuntu on version 10.04 (Lucid Lynx!!!). I remember looking at CentOS at the same time and Ubuntu just felt so much better to use, apt vs rpm/yum, nano included etc, everything felt much more user friendly!
Happy Birthday Ubuntu, you’ll forever be my favourite Linux 💚

In some place I have the original media of this one. Some years ago, Canonical sent to users that would like to receive the hard copy of ISO’s. Was funny!

It is sad as we need to move to another OS since we have many of those deployed. 😂
