Incorrect. I jumped ship last year, once i saw the writing on the wall for Maui, & taught myself to use openSUSE Tumbleweed KDE. Then, late last year, i changed again, this time to Manjaro KDE. It is simply superb.
I deliberately avoided non-Ubuntu-based distros for years. I also avoided rolling distros over that same time [albeit Maui was my first partial semi-rolling distro]. At the time, i felt both those decisions were "right" for me. Now however i kinda sorta regret it, because as i now completely appreciate, there is very very green grass on the other side of the Ubuntu-based hill.
I'll always have a fond spot in my memories for Maui, but in a funny way its sad demise did me a favour... it forced me to think the unthinkable; climb that hill & try out a whole new wonderful land.
