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.

Let's burn him at the stake for supporting snap
\s
You act as if Snap was bad in any way. Proprietary backend does not equal bad.
Edit: Most people don't care about FOSS vs proprietary. And the snap client is FOSS anyways, plus it's capable of installing snaps from local files.
I will not use a system with snap and has nothing to do with being proprietary.
One of the reasons that I could not use Ubuntu is that I cannot control using snap or not. They even use it to install apps that you install via apt.
The fact that the only time I did use a system with snap left me with the impression that it is an absolute performance pig certainly does not help.
