The effectively forced use of Snap is what finally drove me to abandon Ubuntu. This issue played a part in that.
To be clear, I am in favor of app isolation on desktop linux, and I find container-based packaging useful in certain situations. However, the Snap project has demonstrated over and over again that the people driving it fail to grasp important issues like user agency and open systems. Like Alex, I find the result intolerable. Being rid of it was worth the temporary pain of switching distros. So long, Ubuntu, and thanks for all the fish. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575053 Title: Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
