Let me be clear: I am not a flatpak fanboi. That said: wtf is unbuntu thinking? They stop official support for repositories. They switch to snaps, which are arguably worse than flatpaks in most ways. They don't hold a community repo that can be easily accessed (AUR anyone?). They're boxing their user base into using 1 package format, a Frankenstein kernel, and an update model which has proven itself to be buggy at best and OS breaking at worst. Know who else operates like this? Microsoft. Linux is about freedom and choice. Assuming I EVER had an idea to use an unbuntu distro again, this completely put me off it.
