    I’ve been specifically avoiding Ubuntu because of snaps, instead preferring Ubuntu derivatives that don’t use it, like Mint and Pop.

    And more recently, trying an entirely different approach with Arch.

    And yes - I could get rid of snaps in Ubuntu if I wanted. But everything is just a little more annoying when you are going against the conventions of your distro.

      It’s made even worse by some software pretending to be Ubuntu builds but just quietly installing a Snap version instead.

      Looking at you, Firefox. 👀

      Switched to EndeavourOS a couple of years ago as my main, and its been amazing. No regrets.
