I fled from Ubuntu when Unity was introduced. Hated it!
Now ... years later ... they're offering Ubuntu Pro free?
Anyone try it? Is it worth it?

See e.g. this thread: Ubuntu Pro does not work with Linux Mint
The people of Alderaan have been bravely fighting back the clone warriors sent out by the unscrupulous Sith Lord Palpatine for 792 days now.

Re: Free Ubuntu Pro?
On the contrary: Ubuntu Pro can be applied in Mint. Although I only recommend it for a dead or near-dead Mint which you can't upgrade to a supported Mint (for example because you have 32-bit hardware).cecilieaux wrote: ⤴Sun Feb 05, 2023 3:14 pm I realize it's Ubuntu Pro ***OR*** Linux Mint

Re: Free Ubuntu Pro?
Hi,
I published a better working hack: viewtopic.php?p=2292591#p2292591
Tested on Linux Mint 20.3, needs to be adapted to other versions.

MN
