From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Just remove the crypto bullshit apps and 99% of the problems will go away.

And maybe release the SnapStore code so they can all scam each other over there.

Then I'll be on the last deb until it no longer works. I'm not going down the proprietary snap route.

Can you use snaps with autofs/NFS yet?

Or sandbox Snap apps on systems without the Ubuntu Apparmor patches or even using SELinux?

Maybe it's just me, but I doubt this will be very effective.
