No it's still open source, and you can check it yourself, the spyware which is not hidden like on Microsoft doesn't even have to be removed - you just disable it and ti stops taking data for Amazon.

So no, no, no, no sure if you want to give them your data - that way they make a profit by monetizing it - give it. Else just disable that and participate with code, support or ideas instead.

Ubuntu is literally alongside fedora the best distribution right now.

1999: simple, clean interface that can run on a wide range of hardware
2009: bloated interface that drains battery life and requires a beefy GPU. Feedback buttons and other visual cover everywhere. Multiple clocks, one in an awful, skeuomorphic analog format that doesn't even have numbers. Scores of different visual styles crammed into every window. Want to fix things? Sorry, you can't, the software doesn't belong to you.

He is prototyping. He doesn't have time to care about OSes. His real challenge is to build his own self-driving software/hardware, hardest problems being applied deep learning, kalman filters and traction control. Ubuntu does everything he really needs. The only drawback is lack of hard realtime, but I guess he just deals with it.

You see there are hobbyists ricing their arch, and there are people applying computers to solve toughest real-word problems. I, for one, am really interested in being the second type.

Linux is a lot of fun once you get used to it, and once you have everything set up the way you want.

Imagine any time you have a problem with how Windows is doing something you can fix it -- that's Linux (or BSD) for an experienced user. It's worth the sacrifices I think.
