Upgrading Ubuntu is a hackjob that usually breaks something.
You'd better reinstall.

But if your current system works and is still supported, why not keep it?

I'm new to linux and I dont know how to proper migrate it

Why not just re-use the home partition instead of wiping and copying back?
>>
>>56256713
do not update past 15, it's still a mess
>>
>>56256886
If someone is on Ubuntu and says he's new to Linux, I assume he went for the recommended automatic partitioning scheme, which on Ubuntu dumps everything in one partition.
>>
Probably.
>>
>>56256886
Because LUKS.

>>56256816
This is not advised as you will copy config files intended for the previous distribution. You might mess up theming.

I’m currently on 14.04 and not going to update, because everything works fine and that version of Ubuntu is still within support range of Google’s Chrome browser. Although previous upgrade from 12.04 to 14.04 went rather smoothly, I decided to stick to Trusty for now. However, if you’re planning to try snap packages, you have to upgrade to 16.04.

Cuckbuntu is a cuck distro like cuckian and cuckdora. Install a white man's distro like arch linux.

What's wrong with Debian? I know Ubuntu became shit after Amazon bought it, but Debian?

>>56257299
Ran by SJW cucks. If you use it, you're a cuck yourself

16.04 is not very stable, am running it but things break now and then after updating, would recommend staying on 14.04.something a little longer.
>>
>>56257310
you thought this was really funny before you posted it didn't you?

Cuck

>>56256713
No, 16 still has some issues.

>>56257310

Afaik they only shown support towards women rights, which is a plus for me, since I'm a woman. I'd be pissed only if they support crap like blm or other crap like this.

No, don't upgrade.

Install Manjaro instead if you have time.

>Arch is the *opposite* of a user-centric freedom. The opinion of users
has no weight here. Only the developers have an opinion, and there
aren't voting systems as there are in Debian. Technical decisions are
made based on merit via consensus among the developers, not popularity.

>USE GPL
>A User Freedom Centric License

Seriously they need to just fork into BSD

>Not minimalist
what is even the point of this distro anymore? they have taken all weight away from it and lost direction. The devs have fucked this distro.
