No, but maybe the forums are.

"Ubuntu also boasts one of the largest community bases of all the Linux
distributions, called the Ubuntu Forums, which contain more than 67,000
unique registered users. Monson-Haefel said he believes Oracle could
effectively tap into this popularity and use it alongside Ubuntu's desktop
and server side aspects to design a truly complete software stack."


It's actually more than like 92 000 members....

So is Ubuntu great because the forums are large or are the forums large
because Ubuntu is great?

Both, I guess?
