FLAVOR: Fedora

HEADLINE: How Ubuntu is terrible

DESCRIPTION: dpkg, apt-get, and more commands use ambiguous names (apt-get update && apt-get upgrade for example). The package manager on Ubuntu and Debian should be consolidated into a single 'apt' command, such as 'apt install' or 'apt update'. Ubuntu and Debian default settings are configured like someone didn't read documentation and doesn't care about consistency. Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, and other RedHat-based distros are far superior in every way imaginable.

ROLE/AFFILIATION: DevOps Engineer / Unix Systems Administrator



... there _is_ an apt command. Apt-get install aptitude if it's missing.

It has pretty progress bars too ;)

I don't think rhel is much better; dnf?!


Classy!
