What do you like best about the product?
It's open source and very fast when working in a software development field. In particular, I don't need any third-party software to commit the codes to my repo.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems nothing from my side because I started my development in Ubuntu. And I that way while working in the Terminal. One thing in v20.04.2 doesn't have a window resizing option like v16 & v18. When using it on 13 laptops the browser window is a little bit bigger.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Yeah, it's open-source software. And time-saving on development work. Its speeds up me while working on the terminal. Copying files from server also nicely works.

It can run on very minimum hardware requirements. Its very fast and light weight and stable. Works perfectly for my current load. I don't need to pay anything for this.

The most important aspect is that Ubuntu is free. It is a developer's most delightful OS, it is really developer-friendly. It is one of the OS you can easily customize to your taste.

If you are going to use any Linux based Operating system use an Ubuntu Desktop.
