The second argument is false… How it’s worse? It’s definitely different…
They did some user friendly improvements, for people who are not want barebones Linux. They take care of the most stuff you need, so you can focus on your work. Before you came with snap argument. Think how much it’s matter for normal user how they installing software? If they want JetBrains IDE, just go into store and install JetBrains IDE. Ubuntu was and will be for user who don’t care and want their system to work.
They even implemented Dock and systray for GNOME, so people can use system as it’s normal even on GNOME xd
Im one of those people that’s still pissed off about when they had amazon ads in the OS by default. Even though it was like 10 years ago. Like, id hit the wondows button and start typing “firefox” and see an ad for a firepit from amazon.
Oh yeah, then i went back to it ~5 years ago until the snap packages pissed me off too much
Debian is much easier now than it was 15 years ago, and some of that is thanks to canonical. Im not actually anti ubuntu, but they will always make weird choices to annoy people like me
If only snap worked as well as flatpak. Not one snap package I have installed (Kubuntu) has worked, even the snap FF went wonky within 3 days of a fresh distro install. Flatpak works better as I have not had a single issue with any flatpak install (I refuse to look at how big these files are) I just like the idea of sand boxing all these apps. As of now my preferred install is 1. flatpak, 2. .deb, 3. compile the bitch from source, the only one I have had to compile was the “Drivers” for my and my gfs G13 keyboards so we could assign the keys we want.
You can’t satisfy every person on the planet xd
There are always people with different view on different things… Amazon ads were 10+ years ago… Snaps still but not everyone hates it. I don’t for example.
Canonical is a corporation which trying to make money. Of course. But at least they are doing it keeping Ubuntu free, and survive in this world where you can’t do nothing without money. FOSS people basically pays nothing for things they are using. So it’s nothing wrong Canonical trying to monetize their work.
You can love it or hate. Nothing wrong with it xd Every people have their own opinions on different things. That’s a reason why not every one can be satisfied :) The good is that, we have more distros than people actually using it xd So everyone can find his own home :)

Thankfully I missed the amazon ads.
