<div dir="ltr">Elsie, thanks for the honesty, and it's good to know why people have left a community. People change and projects change, and it's okay to find something that's a better fit. But I also wanted to thank you for the Matrix room advice, because one of the reasons I'd love to have this group active again is to connect to other women's groups at Fedora and GNOME - and help make the community more welcoming for women who haven't yet joined. I'll answer you more in a reply to that e-mail specifically! </div> <div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Apr 21, 2021 at 3:04 PM Elsie Hupp <<a href="mailto:canonical@elsiehupp.com" target="_blank">canonical@elsiehupp.com</a>> wrote: </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Not to be too gauche, but Canonical’s increasingly corporate orientation is a big part of why I’ve been more interested in Debian (for desktop) lately. Debian has a public-facing Gitlab. Canonical has Launchpad, which is about as dead as this mailing list. (The other thing is I’m interested in contributing to GNOME, and Debian is much closer to a vanilla GNOME environment, so it’s more suitable to that sort of work.) When I installed Debian on my Linux desktop I did set up a large number of boot partitions, so I will probably reinstall Ubuntu at some point. (I still use Ubuntu for server, though.) > On Apr 20, 2021, at 6:57 AM, Tricia Bowen <<a href="mailto:tricia.bowen@gmail.com" target="_blank">tricia.bowen@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > > It’s been awhile since I’ve used Ubuntu.
