Where's NetworkManager in ubuntu 24.04?

The NetworkManager service is absent from my ubuntu server 24.04. I still get internet connections, but I can't manage them through systemd like before.

Is it really a bug, or is it by design, in which case I guess manually installing network-manager could be a problem?
