Ubuntu is great, the average user doesn't care about the snaps controversy

Honestly I use Ubuntu as a server OS knowing full well there are better OS's simply because there's so much documentation out there for Ubuntu that if I have an issue I'm struggling to solve, someone else already has. Which is what people who are swapping OS's need more than anyone.

Ive been using Ubuntu for years, people have been bitching about it, but its stable and easy to use and thats all i want from my pc

And if you're going to offer someone to switch to something over the snap controversy anyways, maybe recommend Mint or a similar distribution (Mint is basically Ubuntu without snap)
