I would argue a move away from GPL is a bad idea. I am surprised Ubuntu explicitly mentioned licensing, and not technical reasons, as a reason for this move.
EDIT: I misread the point about Canonical focusing on licensing as their main driver for the move.
They didn’t mention licensing as the reason for the move. The community members in the discourse thread mentioned licensing as their reason for opposing the move. Canonical itself mentioned memory safety and speed as the main reasons, saying the licensing wasn’t part of the reason why
Well I’m not a fan of this. Fork it, GPL it, then swap it.
I’ve used Kubuntu as a daily driver for over 10 years but the stench of enshittification is getting to strong these days. Time to move on I guess.
What on earth are you talking about? There’s no enshittification here.
Nice. Im surprised they care about speed when they push their shitty snap apps, but sure.
