I'd have Ubuntu stop forcing me to use Snaps.
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.

Maybe you should switch your favourite then?
The enshittification of Ubuntu will not stop on an enforced Appstore.
honestly canonical has always been like this.
what do you suggest for an alternative thats similar to ubuntu?
(Arch, btw)
Technical: Better, easier to use APIs for pacman. The last time I tried to do alpm stuff, it wasn't fun.
Social: Less rtfm. The manual is good, but it's not cool when people are super elitist (especially towards newbies).
The manual is OK, much of it’s out dated and often outright wrong. It is still a great document.
Edits to the wiki are often knocked back if they weren’t made by the inner circle, discussions on the back page are often closed and frankly the TUs are mostly wankers. The forum policy on necro-bumping leaves half answers everywhere but the notion of “put it in the wiki” is undermined by the toxic community among inner party members.
Arch is a great middle ground between Fedora and Gentoo, but I had to walk away because the community was so toxic and childish.
I’m using void and Gentoo now and I’m pretty happy, anything that doesn’t run works in a container anyway.
TL;DR: community behaviour is much more important to me than technical use.
Arch, literally nothing, everything i didnt like i changed myself. Now i have the perfect user experience
