Ubuntu Desktop on Rpi 4 8GB no display after boot

in flag

So I used the regular raspberry-pi-imager tool for windows and flashed the "Ubuntu Desktop 21.10 (RPi 4/400)" on my brand new raspberry pi 4 8GB ram model.

During the boot, the regular RGB spectrum is shown and then I'm presented with the loading screen with the ubuntu logo in the middle of the screen and the spinner below that and the "ubuntu" text below the spinner.

After a while the screen goes blank and nothing ever pops up, my monitor goes to standby mode.

I've tried the hdmi_safe=1 on the config file and no change.

I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting the hdmi plug still no output on my monitor.

To make sure my RPi4 is not damaged, I installed the Raspberry Pi OS and that worked as expected.

Then, I flashed it with the EEPROM bootloader and it successfully worked.

I was using a 32GB microSD card so I did it again with a 16GB one yet the same issue.

Any help would be great.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
