Nah. Even if the Snapstore backend were FOSS, you should still avoid Snaps because the way they implemented sandboxing subtly breaks many applications.
Not to mention, they dishonestly co-opt your
apt installinvocations to sneakily install the Snap version. Actual Microsoft behavior. If a company is that eager to deceive you and shove their tech down your throat, you should avoid it at all costs.Fair; that is true.
๐คจ damn that's pretty crazy if true. Knowing Canonical this could be real, I'll have to look this up.
Edit:
Confirmed this is true
Apologies for linking to rdit, but yeah Canonical what's going on with you
They also keep sneaking in new ways to get you back on snaps. It's like whackamole.
