    Someone needs to make a new distro off of Ubuntu and call it “nosnapuntu”/“desnapuntu” or some shit like that where they only remove snaps completely and just keep releasing it.

      It’s… Debian?

      Ubuntu is based on Debian which doesn’t have snap by default AFAICT from bookworm/unstable. In fact it’s precisely why I switched back recently. Going from Debian to Ubuntu and now Debian again due to excessive bloatware and “worst” ways to deliver it IMHO.

        Aaah, good old debian. I’ve used it for at least 3 years straight and never had a single issue. It was so stable that it got freaking boring. Lmao. It has a special place in my heart. I remember switching to sid and it was still freaking stable as ever.

        I get it, but I’m talking for those who love Ubuntu as is but don’t like snaps. I ran it once and got very depressed because of snaps and how they were being pushed hard on me.
