Best out there for dev
It really helps for corporate dev environment as OS is not something people like to change easily.
Ubuntu works best for most of the devices but sometimes it fails to deliver drivers for some. I couldn't find anything new in Ubuntu Pro regarding that.
I am also a developer.
Easy to setup and have more reliability
Not just for tech ners, its for everyone
2. Its really not much resource intensive, you can run it on hardware from 2000s, with minimum specifications.
3. Powerful and functional for development.
4. Support for codecs like LDAC (can be installed) for better audio compared to Windows etc.
5. You wont miss windows or MacOs that much.
