Distro wars are silly. If someone is happy using Ubuntu, I’m happy they’re a linux user.
Same as the Unix wars and Vim vs. Emacs.
Except the specific distro you use impacts your choices and the future direction and success of Linux as a whole.
If you pick the single enshittified distro then you serve to perpetuate it’s influence.
This silly infighting serves to perpetuate people staying on windows or mac os

I agree but the extent of my “silly infighting” is “don’t use Ubuntu”. If they stay on Windows instead of Ubuntu, everyone is probably better off.
I don’t see who would be better off in that scenario, except microsoft, and I feel they’re worse for their users and the world than ubuntu
There’s no need to snap
Don’t snap at me, but it would be more apt of you to make a flat pack, or create an app image, or you might get stuck in a tar ball.
What happened to Ubuntu?
It’s popular and widely used so people naturally hate it.
and also snaps
Yes, snaps are widely used so naturally people hate them too.
Who uses snaps except Ubuntu crowd?!
I use snaps on multiple non-Ubuntu systems, because they provide capabilities I haven’t been able to find elsewhere without having to manually manage updates, security issues, etc.
Flatpak provides similar sandboxing capabilities and you can use TopGrade to manage all updates.
Flatpak doesn’t manage system services.
