I think the “Ubuntu Core 22” means it is the snap based version of Steam rather than the deb version.

If you look at the snapcraft.yaml for the Steam snap, it uses core22 as its base.

Glad to see it’s popularity is waning. Snap is the inferior universal package by many metrics and the steam snap in particular is very not ready for prime time.

One of the last conversations I had on Reddit was with a guy complaining about how crap Linux is, that he installed Ubuntu and the desktop didn’t even work, it went straight to a terminal, and after some prodding he said that he couldn’t even get APT to work, and it hit me: “You didn’t install Ubuntu Core, their embedded OS version, did you?” No response.

To be fair on the guy, Canonical’s website is corporate sewage. finding the right ISO is a chore.

I politely disagree. Finding the Core ISO is harder than the Server/Desktop ones. https://ubuntu.com/download/core

There’s a Build Your Core button. And that takes you to a docs page that lets you download a pre-built image. I think it’s pretty obvious that this is not the Desktop Ubuntu.

Vector databases as the data foundation for generative AI applications

is what I see when I go to ubuntu.com on mobile. Seriously? Where is the ISO Canonical?! Why do I have to open the menu and choose Products -> Ubuntu OS -> Ubuntu Desktop to reach the ISO?
