I haven’t listened to this podcast, but in my humble opinion, as a previously comfortable user of Ubuntu based distros, the whole snap fiasco is throwing a wrench in the stability of that whole corner of the linux distro-verse. I really don’t want to use snaps because I’ve run into weird issues trying to use snaps of steam before, but it seems that you can’t even install mysql workbench on Ubuntu 22.04 variations and thats just driving me up a wall. I uninstalled the firefox snap as soon as I got Ubuntu Budgie working (I really dislike modern Gnome) and replaced it with native firefox, but now firefox won’t auto update. Budgie uses tilix by default and its too much of a pain to try and get a workflow going with tmux and vim. There’s a lot of these tiny issues, and while nvidia is finally making progress driverwise, I really want to be able to undervolt and overclock my ampere card, I am sadly on the verge of running windows for “poweruser” capabilities from my graphics card (and finally being able to control my rgb after openrgb disabled support for msi boards) and running Fedora in a virtual box for work purposes. Hopefully things come together support wise to go back to bare metal linux in the next year or so but for now its seems like I can only scratch my linux itch in a rather inelegant fashion :(
