BSD vs. Ubuntu motd(5)
Tbh I find the Ubuntu message of the day quite useful.<p>The &quot;adverts&quot; are benign. Right now it says to check out microk8s and also to look at livepatch.<p>But logging in and seeing a summary of: loaf, disk usage, processes, number of users logged in, IP addresses, memory usage and swap usage, kernel version and also last login time and from what IP.<p>That&#x27;s pretty useful stuff to me.<p>Also if you&#x27;re in the position to care about motd, you&#x27;re going to have the skill to change it yourself.
