    Nah. Even if the Snapstore backend were FOSS, you should still avoid Snaps because the way they implemented sandboxing subtly breaks many applications.

    Fair; that is true.

    Not to mention, they dishonestly co-opt your apt install invocations to sneakily install the Snap version.

    🤨 damn that’s pretty crazy if true. Knowing Canonical this could be real, I’ll have to look this up.


    Edit:
    Confirmed this is true

    Apologies for linking to rdit, but yeah Canonical what’s going on with you

      They also keep sneaking in new ways to get you back on snaps. It’s like whackamole.
