In a surprise move, Ubuntu developers have agreed to stop shipping Flatpak, preinstalled Flatpak apps, and any plugins needed to install Flatpak apps through a GUI software tool in the default package set across all eight of Ubuntu’s official flavors, as of the upcoming Ubuntu 23.04 release.
@2xsaiko Was this in response to my response to someone asking about new distros? New to Mastodon!
Haven’t noticed the snaps much, but when I have, it was something weird that made me think it probably wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t installed the snap… probably my aversion to learning something new and unrelated. I absolutely hated systemd when it first got pushed by Redhat, but I’ve come around.
Yeah, not liking the tone of that developer. Maybe needs an LLM-bedside-coprocessor. ;)
@[email protected] It’s in response to this comment. Looks like Mastodon doesn’t really deal well with Lemmy comment threads (and I think I have to explicitly tag you for you to see it?) :P
