    So less functionality is better?

    Linux is getting enshittified.

      As I’ve commented elsewhere on this post and others have said, this is a change that affects pretty much no one. I didn’t even know MBR (legacy BIOS) partition tables on UEFI boot was possible, honestly.

      By no longer putting in the effort to maintain this bit that no one uses, work can be put to something someone uses.

      Also, with Linux, specific distros can get encrapified (kind of happened to Ubuntu), but as others have said, there’s usually always another distro to jump to at worst.

      it’s just fedora and, even then, because of ibm’s acquisition of red hat.

      money and american hegemony have tried to enshitify linux many times in the past; but linux keeps on chugging along anyways.
