I respect people who don't like snaps, but Canonical will not abandon a successful project (slrpnk.net)

If you don't like snaps, don't use the distribution by the company who tries to establish them.

And also warn newcomers not to invest time into those distros.

Exactly. I hope pop moves away from ubuntu at some point though.

I agree, have seen so many people trying to document how to "desnap" Ubuntu and wondered why bother, you are fighting against what is now the whole point of Ubuntu while trying to use Ubuntu while so many other options exist.

I do happily encourage folks to explain why they left Ubuntu behind as I did (snaps). No confusion, just a reiteration of disappointment that they went from being my favorite distro to completely off my list with the snap stuff.
