    You're probably expecting traffic from people having trouble with Ubuntu.
    It's pretty self-evident that people aren't having problems. Mmm?

    OTOH, perhaps people who might have had problems with Ubuntu have moved to something else? I have, by running two Xubuntu desktops and a Lubuntu VirtualBox (vBox) appliance instead. I'm plotting another vBox Lubuntu to replace two old Linux VMs. I'm waiting for motivation to kick-in.

    Cheers,
    Paul.

    Ubuntu user since 2010 here. I'm running a "vanilla" Ubuntu 22.04 as a daily driver and I have to say: It works so well, its boring. The combination of a mast faster Gnome shell with a stable running version of Edge makes it a perfect workstation for me. Its fast, stable and geeky if I want to (I run some Commandline apps for fun). Its awesome to see how Ubuntu has matured (or how the computing has shifted towards the browser as your core app) but for me its almost perfect when it comes to my day to day machine.
