2017-05-11 13:02:38 Chris Rainey description Please consider a less dramatic end-user notification for "problem" notifications. I'm transitioning long-time Microsoft Windows and some Apple Mac users to Ubuntu. Often, they are "change resistant" -- looking for any reason to claim that Ubuntu(Linux) is not "as good", etc.. Please consider changing the user-facing crash dialogs with wording such as: "Correcting for system anomaly Submitting report to authors" [ Continue ] Then, silently gather report data and submit to maintainers/developers. More often then not, in my experience, these crashes are recoverable and deal with things like: cups-browsed, hpps, Xorg, etc. which are foreign concepts to end-users anyway. Make the current developer/technician friendly notifications an opt-in config from a 'update-alternatives' or similar post-install process. Thank you for your consideration in making Ubuntu an easier transition for non-technical end-users and their sysadmins.
