Just an ordinary OpSec anarchist cypherpunk-fan pleb trying to evade the Orwellian dystopy.

Yummi, but please don't put ketchup on these beauties 😅🙈

Happy Halving! 🎉

Thanks for your response. As you said, snap is closed source.

I personally dont care about large corporate or government. They can use #Appimage and #Flatpak. Please tell me one benefit of snap compared to these open alternatives?

Why not supporting flatpak?

Why Firefox and Thunderbird if they can provide compiled packages in their repos, too? They just wanna push their own proprietary shit, which I dont trust at all.

Speaking of other distros based on Ubuntu:

Most of them are kind of useless. And those which are usable try to get rid of snap.

Linux is not really well known for lng battery duration. U might give a try to the package tlp.

#Qubes, awesome and state of the art of security focused distros, is imho not really suitable for the "average" user. For most people firejail provides a pretty good "sandboxing" alternative which can be installed on every distro.

Depends on your needs and level of experience in Linux.

Desktop:

For beginners I'd recommend MX-Linux or Linux Mint Debian Edition.

For advanced users with special needs I'd recommend Fedora, Arch or Fedora based Qubes.

Server:

Debian. Imho state of the art.

Speaking of shit: The next nail in the coffin:

#Ubuntu 24.04 ships #Thunderbird as #Snap only.

Go and die #Ubuntu! Nobody needs you any more. You used to be a good distro.

#Linux

#Canonical
