What is our primary use case?
There are no specific uses beyond it being an operating system.
What is most valuable?
I like the flexibility. I work on the command line.
What needs improvement?
If you update certain models, it's not as easy at times. My main issue with Ubuntu Linux is that there are too many ways to administrate Linux. The config file can be changed in many ways, but with other solutions, there is only one way to configure the system. In Linux, there are too many ways to configure it. My colleague configures in one way and I configure in another way, which makes it confusing. They should unify the way to configure the Linux systems. You can change the ATC conflict file. You can change some distributions in another way. You have to look on many sites if you like to know why and why the configuration is set for in that way.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Ubuntu Linux for two years. We have used version 16 for a long time, version 18, and version 20 for quite some time.
