=== I Moved to Linux and It's Even Better Than I Expected ===

Dan Gillmor, writing for Backchannel, explains his reasoning for
moving to Linux from other operating systems, and why he likes it. He
refers to the iPad Pro release as an "uh-oh" moment, and Windows 10 as
having improved usability but privacy (spyware) concerns. Dan points
out that Ubuntu is his distribution of choice, acknowledges that
GNU/Linux won't be for everyone but recommends the move to lots of
folks.

Joey-Elijah Sneddon of OMG! Ubuntu! informs us that Unity's
controversial online search feature is being disabled by default in
the forthcoming Ubuntu release, 16.04 LTS. He looks back at some of
the comments posted in 2012 and 2013, saying that in order to get
online results various options need to be set but upgrades from
previous Ubuntu versions will retain existing user preferences.
