Ubuntu 22.04 Annoyances

Here are a few collected ways I like to customize Ubuntu 22.04 servers. I used to love Ubuntu, but I hate auto updates and snaps. They also put ads and other usless ads diguised as "news" in MOTD. ESM FUD is spread throughout the OS including simple apt functions. You do not need ESM and thus Ubuntu 22.04 has become super annoying. unattended-upgrade is an automatic installation of security (and other) upgrades without user intervention. Consider the ramifications of disabling this service.

Disable unattended upgrades

The Unattended Upgrades feature is enabled by default and it runs at system boot without the user's permission. The configuration is stored in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades

Disable: sudo dpkg-reconfigure unattended-upgrades then a TUI will come up, select "No"

This will not permantently disable the function. After an update it will be enabled. In the file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-upgrades change these values from 1 to 0. Even doing this it will

Using <details> in GitHub

Suppose you're opening an issue and there's a lot noisey logs that may be useful.

Rather than wrecking readability, wrap it in a <details> tag!
