Apps aren't even distributed via snap or flatpak. we have the option to install software we need and compile those are snap or flatpak only.
I don't understand why people are so hell bent on hating Snaps. The architecture is literally better than Flatpak -- and I'm quite sure it's possible to run one's own Snap host. Some people say they're bloated and slow, well not anymore than Flatpak (actually less) and people love that?
I hate them because they make Ubuntu useless for a desktop in an enterprise environment. Snaps have a bug where they will NOT open with a network home directory, which is common for a business ... And now they've made Firefox snap only.
So for a business environment: you can't even open the included web browser. WTF?
Do you understand now?
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
