I’ve not used Ubuntu based since pop 22.04, so sorry for the misinformed question. What’s the user facing issue with snap? I know the repos are solely managed by Ubuntu, but I didn’t have any issue I could attribute to snap. Actually I liked it had terminal app support, not only graphical ones like flatpak (last I checked at least)

It’s slow, and not great for desktop usage. Also, some apt packages have been transformed into snaps. If you do: ``` sudo apt install firefox

It no longer installs the deb version, but the snap. I (and probably many other people) don't like this lack of transparency and choice. It just feels like getting snaps pushed down our throats.
