An automated script to set-up Ubuntu as it should be. Tested on Ubuntu 22.04, 23.04, 24.04 and 25.04.

Features :

  • Removes snaps completely
  • Installs a vanilla gnome session
  • Sets up flathub and gnome-software with the flatpak plugin
  • Installs gnome-tweaks
  • Installs Extension Manager
  • Disables the Ubuntu theming
  • Enables the libadwaita theme in gtk3 apps using adw-gtk3.
  • Installs the MoreWaita icon theme for extended icon support.
  • Enables Gnome integration with QT apps
  • Installs Firefox from the Mozilla Repository
  • Disables the data reporting component
  • Disables the annoying crash popup Removes terminal ads

TL;DR, you will end up with a clean GNOME desktop with flatpaks, similar to a fresh Fedora install.

Longer support windows with LTS? I could see some people or industries sticking with a particular LTS in order to keep particular pieces of software running.

Otherwise, I agree, why bother.
