Flatpak will no longer be available "out-of-the-box" on any Ubuntu flavor. They think this will improve the "Ubuntu Experience".
My guess is that snaps on desktops will follow MIR and Unity at some point and that this decision will hurt Ubuntu desktop distributions.
Flatpak already won on desktop Linux, no need for this stupid move.

For some reason, this reminds me to… YouTube’s decision to remove the dislike button. All for “greater user experience”, peace, and harmony. A simple voting system regarding this decision would have been amazing to see. Since this rather seems a Canonical way or highway.

Because Elon has continuously misrepresented this:
The data used for flight-tracking accounts like ElonJet - called ADS-B data - are transmitted from nearly every plane in the sky.
The signals are unencrypted, and anyone with a $20 RTL-SDR radio can pick them up. Aviation hobbyists gather the data and put them on websites like ADS-B Exchange.
It's publicly available, legally acquired data of the kind Elon Musk said he'd allow, until suddenly he no longer did.
