Yeah, see this is why I went with Linux Mint Debian Edition instead of Ubuntu-flavored Linux Mint. I know the Mint guys strip out most of the less-desirable stuff that ships with Ubuntu, but at that point you may as well have just started with Debian. Seems easier to go forward from straight Debian instead of working backwards from a slopified Debian-based distro.

Canonical is just another shitty corpo using FOSS to masquerade as a "good guy".
