I'd still be using Ubuntu sometimes if it weren't for the snaps thing. They only make sense for proprietary software... but snaps still suck. I don't like packaged software. They contain all kinds of things that can't be updated. The app store was getting better before all that changed. Now Debian seems better, but I still prefer source based distros like Gentoo because the ingredients come with recipes.
When both are free of cost, I prefer food delivery over cooking myself.
I just use Debian with the barest minimum installation needed to get flatpak running.
