Ask Ubuntu

Ask Ubuntu is a community-driven question and answer website for the Ubuntu operating system. It is part of the Stack Exchange Network, running the same software as Stack Overflow.

Members gain reputation based on the community's response (through voting) to their questions and answers. Reputation signifies trust for users in the answers they give. Privileges are given based on reputation levels, with users with the highest reputation having similar privileges to moderators.

The site came out of public beta on 10 October 2010, launching alongside Ubuntu 10.10.

As of December 2021, Ask Ubuntu has about 1.3 million registered users and more than 380,000 questions.
