I don't think of it as an ad. It's a line about their own product they produced... There not getting paid for it... It's only an ad if it's 3rd party.. Microk8s is a Canonical product that is free. They did linked to a third party walkthrough. But that maybe less advertising and more somebody already written walkthrough why should we... They have links to support and documentation... Why shouldn't they have links to additional software that is related and created by them?
It promotes material, so, therefore, an ad. The issue is not coming in that it exists (ftmp) but what it might lead to. I am not a super hater, and I did screw up some of my phrasings but the point stands that this should not be there. I could have written this better, but the point stands, and I don't want to rewrite it as the point stands perfectly. It is what it can lead to that scares me, even though this ad is fairly harmless otherwise.
They make more than one now they want to tell people. Maybe it's not leading anywhere, I think you're just jumping to conclusions. If they start promoting someone else then... Your point would be valid. And the definition of an ad is material paid for by a 3rd party for promotion printed, or shared though types of media. They put a line about their own product hence... Not an ad.

It is an ad, by definition, and maybe I am jumping to conclusions but Canonical has struggled with trust recently.
Yours is hate not reason. They have a right to promote their in-house product
They also did this before they were mentioning the automatic security patching canonical livepatch... Did that bother you too?
I have yet to have information on it, but once I do I will then form an opinion.
