Show your love for Ubuntu MATE

And claim in FOSS Force’s what your preferred distro is!

The poll proposes the 10 top distros based on Distrowatch ranking but it is possible to enter manually the name of our distro. The poll ends at 11:59 PM EDT on Wednesday, March 18th 2015.

Mission completed sir.

Done. BTW i think we have enough to at east best Elementary

I entered “Ubuntu Mate” but is it (the page ranking) picking up the name “Ubuntu” only?.

The text reads:

Write-in votes must be for only one distro — votes mentioning multiple distros will not be counted.

So I guess it means there will be human review and the distro name you give will not be automatically truncated to “Ubuntu” if it is what you mean.
Then if you mean: will the guys of FOSS Force aggregate all Ubuntu flavours under “Ubuntu”? Well, there is no certainty about that but I hope they won’t. Otherwise why not also merging them all together with Mint, Debian and Elementary OS, since in the end, they are all Debian-derived… :wink:

I get what you mean, I suppose that Ubuntu Mate will be its own messenger in the not to distant future!. :grin:

It is (Ubuntu Mate) still not showing in the top 100 list at Distrowatch!:

@wolfman That’s because the default chart is statistics gathered over 6 months. Ubuntu MATE has only been listed at Distro watch for a few weeks.

Okay Wimpy, thanks for the info, I never gave that a thought!. :sob:

Rejoice, on the Distrowatch main page you can select the time frame (e.g. last 30 days, last 7 days) but indeed the standard is “last 6 months” as explained by Wimpy.
On the Ubuntu MATE page itself, you can also see the stats for all main periods, i.e. as of today 18Mar15:

Popularity (hits per day): 12 months: 282 (27), 6 months: 190 (54), 3 months: 118 (110), 4 weeks: 38 (334), 1 week: 49 (255)
