I don’t think it does. The different flavours are really just different

 And still Jörg says that he stopped using Ubuntu because he "didn't
liek the orange". I wonder why he didn't just change the theme or the
entire Desktop if he was fine with Ubuntu otherwise?

   I dumped Ubuntu YEARS ago ... because it just

   In short, Canonical became a BUSINESS - not Linux.
