As a sewing AND linux nerd, when I get an email newsletter that reads:
"How To Install Snaps"
.. I honestly can't tell what it's gonna be about.
(It was about sewing this time!)

Thx for the info, then it is like that.
Here is the goal proposal

Tbh, #bubblewrap would need to be fixed drastically to be as secure as the #Android #sandbox. And (I am not sure yet) I think even #Snaps are more secure (on #Ubuntu with #Apparmor patches) than #Flatpak with the current system.
As far as I understood, sandboxing needs to happen in #userspace, with tools like #fuse doing the work while being restricted by #MAC like #SELinux or Apparmor.
@itsfoss i miss #UBUNTU very much! You know, the one distro that did not suck so much and did not force shit in your face like #SNAPS or did not ask for #protectionMoney . These had been good times. Good times gone now.
I have a large batch of film to develop from the last few months. Before I get to those, here are a few quick iPhone 12 Pro Max snaps from a recent trip to Sandbridge, Virginia.
@gamingonlinux #canonical #ubuntu NO MORE ! Until they stop forcing #snaps in my face and stop asking for "protection money" the days where i would use UBUNTU ARE GONE FOR GOOD!! I put it right there beside the #RedHat distros , on the TRASH HEAP.
No episódio 317 há aventuras com o @mozilla #Firefox, e com automações para extracção de dados, novidades da @FestaSoftwareLivre e da #UbuconPT2024, diversas novidades do @ubuntu #Noble e #jammy, melhorias de segurança para o #Ubuntu e #snaps.

As I briefly shared on my personal Mastodon account last night (this fediverse thing is going to get confusing, isn’t it), here are a few photos of this year’s garlic. I planted in October 2023.
April 2024
May 2024
June 2024 – Picked the scapes
Bagged and frozen
July 2024 – Picked to dry
September 2024 – Ready to be stored
I’ll likely plant about 200 cloves in October. And the process […]
Okay, so I have the #XFCE side of things set up and working well. I am able to run #clementine and #kpatience at the same time with about 70% memory utilization on 1 gig. Snaps are working great.
#LXDE is installed. For the most part it is set up but for the life of me I cannot get #snaps to integrate/show up on the panel or in the menus. I was able to do it in the last install so this is perplexing.
If you know how to fix this Snaps/LXDE problem holler at yo boy.
@gamingonlinux it was fun, until they started #snaps and later ask for "#protection money" if you want security updates of software they let you install for free, but then hold back updates later behind a pay wall. NO THANKS!! #NO_UBUNTU Good times gone. so is #UBUNTU
Helping someone with Ubuntu 24.04 on a Thinkpad16GB X1 7th generation. Installing aps via Ubuntu App Center. It prefers snaps over debs, but imho it is too soon: all snap based applications feel sluggish & some even refuse to even start properly or crash.
Disappointing experience. Not a great way to welcome a new Linux beginner.
Now replacing snap apps with debs again & considering re-installing this machine with Debian 12.

#Containers ( #flatpak / #snaps ) are a cop out because no one can agree on a libc and a set of #system libraries, forcing #developers to assemble their environment into a container, taking the easy way out for app distribution.
With #Linux 3+ libc's, 5+ init systems, many sets of libraries, and the userland can be made up of many different #shells and #utilities, the Linux ecosystem is very badly fragmented. It's great for the consumer or business to have many choices, however it increases the level of #software #development complexity due to having to target many different architectures and platforms.
Giving credit to where it's due, this is where the #BSD and #UNIX distributions shine. I still disagree on the concept of "base" because I like to assemble my system with applications (not libcs or init systems) I want, not what a community of developers says I need. A dated but well noted example is #FreeBSD including #BIND #DNS server on every system install, regardless if the admin wanted it or not.
Now I get why a lot of people don't like #snaps. #Snapcraft is superbroken outside of #Ubuntu 
Chouette vidéo de @vinceff sur l'intérêt des #snaps sur #Ubuntu #Linux.
Perso, je tourne sur Ubuntu depuis novembre dernier, et je n'ai jamais eu de souci avec ces snaps, les mises à jour sont très régulières et c'est stable (et contrairement à il y a encore qq mois, #Firefox version snap s'ouvre maintenant très vite).
Les #FlatPak cest certainement très bien aussi, mais pour le moment, je n'ai pas eu besoin d'en installer.
Wait, there's no built-in UI to install .deb files on Ubuntu? Really??? 
I know Canonical really wants to push their stupid walled garden with Snaps, but c'mon. That's just insane. 
Snaps are the reason I'll generally not recommend Ubuntu anymore. It's too much to explain to a Linux newbie why Firefox boots slowly and Steam crashes.
Knock knock. Who's there? More scam apps on Canonical's Snap Store! https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/03/knock-knock-whos-there-more-scam-apps-on-canonicals-snap-store/
