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?

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