«Ubuntu setzt auf ntpd-rs — Rust für präzise Zeitsynchronisierung:
Ubuntu plant, ntpd-rs als Standard für die Zeitsynchronisierung einzuführen. Die Rust-Implementierung soll chrony und weitere Tools ersetzen.»

Ich bin kein @ubuntu Fanboy aber ich mag @rust und deswegen sehe ich deren Einsatz sehr positiv.

    My innocent self thought these “theories” only get purported by YouTube/X teenagers. I guess I was wrong.

    sudo is not GPL software, chrony didn’t even complete a year as a default choice in Ubuntu, and gpsd actually adopts a BSD license. Read the comments @ISO@lemmy.zip wrote in this thread.

      This are the CV of the person at Ubuntu carrying the reponsibilities for these changes: https://jnsgr.uk/cv/

      Mark Shuttleworth (founder of Canonical) hails from a similar background. I don’t trust the people working at Canonical an iota to uphold human rights and personal liberties.

      Add to that their push for Snap (instead of package manager integration). I’m willing to bet, that they’re moving away from APT soon-ish.
