Ubuntu, a good way to take advantage of hardware

Although it has improved a lot, there are still deficiencies in the amount of software available, with nothing to complain to the community since they do a great job, there is still a need for more tools or software in various fields of work, or similar in quality to those of Windows or Mac, added to this, the compatibility with the different devices in the market must be immediately improved, sometimes it is an arduous task to find functional drivers for devices of daily use, it could be good to find the way that compatibility with applications that are for Windows.

Ubuntu gives you so much freedom to do your job. You can use Ubuntu for virtually anything. It handles everything smoothly. I've never encountered any inconvinience with it. It gives a wide array of compatible softwares which are essential for software development.
It gives constant updates and upgrades which is really helpful.
The LTS support is also another great thing as it is very reassuring for the user.
nVidea GPU support only adds to the greatness of this operating system.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are minor glitches with nautilus. It occasinally slows down and throws an error. The ubuntu software centre is not upto the mark. Many other softwares need to be added into it.
It gives a very poor gaming experience.
Games on Steam too don't fare very well, there are constant frame drops and stutters. Ubuntu really needs to improve upon these fronts.

Ubuntu has a lot of benefits when it comes to software development. i personally use it for software development.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it without second thoughts.
People often say that Ubuntu is not suitable for day to day use as it is very "ENGINEERED", but I disagree with all thosse people.
Ubuntu is very much capable of handling everything "Windows" can do. Though it might appear daunting at first, Ubuntu handles all your needs perfectly. It has support for nVidea GPu as well and even steam games run flawlessly on it, so it is the way to g. It is free of cost and much better than all the other pricey operating systems out there in the market.

Most productive operating system for developers

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Folder organization
There can be a better way to have a look at your folders differently, visualize how your things are organized. Having an easy to use way to separate things in workspaces, projects and search.
2. Software Center
The UX of software center is not much useful, the information schema can be improved a lot. One thing I would like to see is a better way to have insights about the reputation of the software developer through software center before installing the software on system.

I found that some Linux web items don not like to mention how to perform things on an Ubuntu server. My Ubuntu does not support the Windowing system. It is a server and there is no need for the graphics in a server environment. The problem is, I cannot always use directions on how to use a system in the graphics mode.
