Oh yeah I forgot about those, I think I actually disabled the snap service, or maybe I have a couple of things via snap but only small gui utilities. I use apt and dpkg for everything else, but it was annoying that they made Firefox snap only since 22.04 unless you add the extra apt repository. Easy enough to work around it and move on though.

Fuck snaps.

I love a boring OS that just works for 90% of things and you just live with whatever the other 10% is - usually some driver quirks or peripheral funk.

I’ve never used the gui for upgrade but I also have a hard time remembering do-make-release.

When I have even the smallest bit of time and headspace to dedicate to it, I will switch back to Debian as it was always my favourite but really can’t deal with it at the moment.

Nothing wrong with Ubuntu if you just wanna get stuff done and don’t have a genuine interest in (or time to spend on) tweaking your OS.

I use Ubuntu btw.
