Do you want people to stop using your software? Because this is how you get people to stop using your software.
Fabian N. T.@atoponce Super annoying, yes! Didn’t find the time to investigate yet, but I could swear it popped up *very* shortly after a restart. May have just been unlucky, but… is there a way to disable this?

dirk dierickx@atoponce this drove me insane, worst thing, if you close firefox, it doesn't even do the upgrade 🙄 can you imagine how this is going to look once they snapify most of the Ubuntu OS and/or included applications?

@atoponce I don't use snap, however Firefox forced updates are terrible. They will happen when you least expect it. They also remove the setting options for updates.
Steven@atoponce It is one of the reasons by I recently moved to debian (xfce) from xubuntu. :)

@atoponce This is why I stopped using snap all together.
I knew it auto-updated but figured it would wait until an app is closed to update. Never imagined it would actually forcibly shut down apps in order to update them.
Took me a month of all my docker containers randomly shutting down periodically on my home server to realize that it was snap shutting down docker to update it that was causing everything to stop.
Dan Oachs@atoponce Is it threatening to restart firefox for you in 12 hours if you don't do it yourself? I would hate that, but also knowing how many people never update things, it may be for the best. I hope there is an option to disable that.
@atoponce Every time I tried one of these self-contained modern package things on Linux I ran back to my actual package manager very soon :|
