Only if Canonical still be around for another 8 years :)
On the side-note it is worth to mention that Canonical's ESM patches for
14.04 are now available gratis. Search the web for "Ubuntu ESM personal" to
get the link.
I've never used GNOME, only LXDE on lubuntu and now xfce on trisquel mini. As
I said - old computers..

I'm no developer, just a general user, but if I had to compare 16.04 versus
18.04 - I had a lot of problems and stability issues in 18.04. For me 16.04
just works flawlessly, so I really enjoy using trisquel 8 (for more than a
year now everyday) with only minor problems and I'm actually not

Yes, it is based on manual curation. The source code contains a hard
coded list of applications to recommend.[1] Much of it is
I have zero idea about technical underpinnings, so maybe I should just remain

Linux Lite is also Ubuntu based, so it may be easier to use some of its code
than non Ubuntu based distros.

Thanks chaosmonk for sharing this update on Etiona progress. I intend to
carve out some time to learn how to help with some of the simpler Trisquel
tasks, and I encourage other members of the Trisquel user community to do the
same. That way, there is a better chance of each Trisquel version

Indeed. It was perhaps unwise of me to humor Mr. Liang.

This is but an opinion.

I agree that marketing is so powerful (and usually overwhelming). But the
term "market" is tightly associated with capitalism, which is inherently
incompatible with freedom/liberation.
We are grave diggers of capitalism, not defenders of it. We once succeeded in

The last version of Fedora that I tried was 29, I think. After a fresh
install, I launched gnome-software, and it was unable to find any
applications. I eventually found a workaround (I forget what it was),
and got applications to show up,

Thank you very much for patiently explaining the situations. Now I feel that
I got your point.
I agree that gnome-software is something "cr*p like". For example, it uses
ambiguous "free" to denote either "as in free speech" or "as in free beer".
This is pointless in Trisquel, as everything

I've reviewed various alternative apt frontends. The only ones that I
liked were apper and mx-package-installer, neither of which is a
