My main question is this: Is it worth switching to Ubuntu Pro? Actually I see it’s free for personal use on one computer.

I’d be curious to hear the experience of those of you who switched, and also the motivation of those who didn’t switch.

This question is partly related to another one: I’d like to economically support Linux in general and Ubuntu in particular. Would switching to Ubuntu Pro (and paying) help in this regard? Or which other ways of supporting are out there?

(As you understood, I’m somewhat of a newbie in the Linuxverse.)

    Actually, it’s for five devices per pro user.

    I think Ubuntu Pro is mainly for people who don’t want to switch to new releases very often. I think most people would prefer new features to not having to adjust every 4 years.

    When I want to give Ubuntu money (tbh only did once, when I installed it on the notebook I am currently using), I just donated something at the form which appears when you download it, https://ubuntu.com/download/desktop/thank-you#contributions-form
