“Default” is basically Ubuntu. By “default” I mean you can use most things without needing to ever think about which desktop environment do I have, which package manager I have etc… it “just works”. It is very bad for average Joe if it says “Linux app” and then you can’t install it using apt because it’s available only in another package manager.

It looks like you can’t install Linux apps onto Linux. What kind of message does that send to the broad consumer market?

1. Game studios support - most games don’t support Linux natively (and no, I don’t want compatibility layer upon layer).
2. “Default” Linux distribution for average consumers. Average consumers don’t want 2000 distro choices as they will rather stick to one Windows that having to think between many Linux distros and pick one.
3. The “default” Linux needs to have the consumer-marketing name of simply “Linux OS”.
