Why Ubuntu TM as base OS for Android Studio project

Is it due to the most of devs that filled out preview form work and prefer to work on linux or it’s open source

@Middle_quiter - our underlying VMs are powered by Google Cloud’s Cloud Workstations solution, and they provide an Ubuntu-based image that works really nicely for most of our use cases (speed / extensibility / reliability) :slight_smile:

I think because there is no practical alternative. No one would use Windows for servers if they could do with Linux
