I saw that Ubuntu 25.04 was out and, even after all the badmouthing of
Ubuntu and Wayland, I decided to give it a try. I was actually surprised
to see that it's faster on my old Dell Optiplex 9020 micro (with its 5th
generation, low power, i5 CPU) than was Ubuntu 24.10 on this machine —
even with the Snaps.

I may upgrade. I'm a 24.10 and don't have any complaints so I've been
putting it off.

I didn't even know it was out yet, until I saw something about it on
YouTube.

Which reminds me, one thing I absolutely hate about Ubuntu is that
they force cookies on you when you go to their site. I always move to
Private Browsing when at Ubuntu.com. That way the cookies I accept will be
forgotten the second I close Private Browsing. (But I always forget about
that until after I've gone to the Ubuntu site with the regular browser, so
it's an irritant.)
