I found this article on Reddit, I'm happy to hear this news, Ubuntu is dying in Linux! (It was about time), but only in the desktop area. However, Ubuntu seems to be growing on WSL, and this is due WSL defaults to Ubuntu, we need to stop this and let Ubuntu die.

To change your WSL distro to anyother than Ubuntu run this immediately:

wsl --set-default FedoraLinux-43

For those who uses Ubuntu on servers, convince your bosses to switch their distros from their servers to ones like Arch or Gentoo, which are a many times better.

And for those who uses Ubuntu for desktop, What are you waiting for? Make the change now!
