Ubuntu is nice as a (1) desktop, but I can&#x27;t see it&#x27;s benefits as a server operating system. It&#x27;s harder to configure, and more opaque than the alternatives. The devs seem amateurish and the company is too much unfocused for its size. The system is not well integrated and surprising changes occur frequently. Documentation is scarse and fragmented. There are systems like BSDs and maybe some Gnu Linux distros where the behaviour of the system and that the devs are way more predictable and processes and practices transparent. Why use Ubuntu for server, for other than its popularity and tradition? Is there actually any pros to it that I don&#x27;t know?<p>(1) Edit: Removed &quot;disability&quot; from here, autocorrect accident.
