I don't run any APT based distribution right now but I understand the issues... I think the biggest problem I see is Canonical developing what looks like a very useful tool but holding it proprietary. If Canonical provided the snap creation and hosting tools to the community I imagine it would be judged on its technical merits. As it is, I see more and more reports that Canonical is trying to gain more and more control and that's exactly what I don't like to see. Would have tried Ubuntu but they've poisoned that well. I'll have to recalculate.
