    • I would say the same but for authentication.

    We have linux servers on our domain, specifically becaeuse there are certain things they do better than windows, and im a tool for a trade kinda guy.

    But authentication and management of creds is a hard requirement.

    The rest i can work with. We setup Ansible to handle much of the day to day config things. GPO"s might be nice.

    At one and for years i was using PBIS, and whatever it was called before it was bought out, forked and named PBIS - https://github.com/BeyondTrust/pbis-open

    I liked it because it kept GID/UID's consistent across the domain. But it was flaky for samba shares specifically ad group enumeration. There are paid add-ons that leverage GPO but never went that route.

    More recently we are just leveraging SSSD/Chrony/Smb/Nmb to do the same, there are a few tweaks, but its solid. Its actually more stable now.

    Some GPO's would be nice I supposed.

  • ubuntu-desktop-installer

    Discontinued Ubuntu Desktop Installer

    • Presumably the new Ubuntu installer being built with Flutter:

    Not sure if that's already in this version.

  • snapstore

    Obsolete super minimalist example "store" to serve snap packages

    • In fact, Bret Barker has published an open source (Apache License) SNAP store on GitHub. We’re already looking at how to flesh out his proof-of-concept and bring it into snapcore itself.
