The title is a quote from Mastodon. I’ve always seen dislike towards snap so I was taken back when I saw this stance. The person who wrote this was referring to Tuxedo Laptops.

What are your thoughts on this?

If you need snapd, install it. It's not like I now consider you a degenerate for using snaps. It's just a packaging format. I just understand why only Canonical enables it by default. If anything its annoying there is a handful of apps that provide snaps but not flatpaks.
