All devs turn 40 and quit their job, buy a cottage near the forest and start growing their own vegetables anyway, so you just need to stick to it for a few more years.

I have to use windows for work. Installed vim through winget and set a powershell alias, allowing me to use it similarly to linux. Windows ist still just ass though.

It absolutily isn’t. Get your head out of the sand.

I was talking about myself. Telling someone else they didn’t understand the joke while failing to understand theirs myself

whoosh

You do understand that greentext guy is actually white and the people he’s living with are his family, right? That’s the whole joke here.

They technically do tell you, even in the graphical software store. And the speed difference between snaps and debs has been largely nullified by now.

you can install firefox, but even if you click ‘make firefox my default browser’, it won’t. It will open the settings, wait a second and then show you another button. Clicking that will do what you wanted - for web links. Pdf files? Html files? Searches from the start menu? Still all open edge.

On ubuntu it takes maybe a minute to remove the firefox snap, add the mozilla repo and install from there. Those dummie packages are more for convenience than anything nefarious. I agree that snaps have been made unavoidable if you’re not paying attention, but I disagree that it’s a bad thing. Ubuntu is migrating from .debs to snaps, so it makes sense that those become ever more prominant.

They do not prevent you from adding repos and installing from those. They don’t even try to make it slightly more difficult to do so than it was before. Microsoft force you to use edge. Cannot really disable it. Can’t remove it. Can’t simply switch away from it. See the difference?

But snaps do have shared dependencies to a degree. Also, do you use gentoo?

Agreed

I’m sure it’s not literally all of them, and it’s almost never preinstalled. But available in the repositories.

Ubuntu has zero telemetry if you flick the switch they show you right after installation. And steam is proprietary software, yet basically every distro ships it in their repos. Your points make no sense.

Is it that bad? I run gnome on two 4k monitors with 100% scaling and large text and it’s great

In this horrible summer heat, there are few feelings more satisfying than a fridge-cold beer after a long day of work. But it’s hard to stop after the first.

Exactly. Couple years ago when everything was on netflix I gladly gave them money but now it feels like every season of every somewhat good show is on a different platform.

Horrible day to have eyes
