Snaps are technically foss but the server thst hosts them are proprietary to Ubuntu, when flatpak is perfectly reasonable. It’s a bit of a pattern of things they do, finding solutions to things they weren’t really problems (cough netplan cough)
That’s fair and Microsoft fired their entire update testing team and then pushed multiple updates that bricked Windows installs. And that was just Windows 10.

You know that snaps existed before Flatpaks right?
Also they put ads in search long before Windows did and as much as I hate Microsoft we should never forget that.
Not to defend them, but it was trivial to remove the adverts and they stopped after the “feedback”. Unlike Windows.

Putting ads in foss is an irredeemable sin
Bring out the guillotine!
