The title is a quote from Mastodon. I’ve always seen dislike towards snap so I was taken back when I saw this stance. The person who wrote this was referring to Tuxedo Laptops.

What are your thoughts on this?

All that because they made a distro based in Ubuntu but got rid of snap? Ok...

Out of the loop here, but can't just people install regular Ubuntu to use Snap?

[–] Bezier@suppo.fi 15 points 1 year ago

Well yes. And I'm pretty sure they can just install snap itself.
