If you have gained some Linux skills after using Ubuntu for some time, you may try switching to these distributions to explore the world of Linux distributions further.

Ubuntu is one of the best Linux distributions for beginners. It's an excellent platform for people new to Linux. It is easy to install, has tons of free resources available along with a massive list of applications available for it. https://itsfoss.com/distribution-after-ubuntu/

    Without-systemd AND "rolling-release".

    I've got servers I need to "upgrade" and it will be a bit of work that I won't have to do in the future when I switch to a rolling-release system.

    I've been liking Alpine Linux for several years, including using Xen, not yet Internet-facing production, but definitely on development systems and for a few people's NAS and it's been working for years. Likely will be my next (soon) OS for live servers.

    I'm not sure why all the systmed hate.

    It seems to work. You can trust it. Trust me. I promise. It gives you the assurance that you can safely expect the kind of robustness, quality, stability and security that you've come to expect from any Microsoft product. So install systemd today!

      You got me. I'm reading, and thinking, "Is he nucking PHUTTS???" Then, the punchline. Nice job, DannyB.
