I thought a guy at the end would walk in without a mustache and he'd be called Debian.
Kubuntu LTS gang, rise up!
Until you run an apt command and both snapd and snaps get forcibly reinstalled.
Just don’t use Ubuntu. If you need to stay in the Debian ecosystem then just use Debian with KDE.
Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, but removes or otherwise avoids most of the problems with Ubuntu.
It doesn't come with KDE, but it's a solid option for those not quite comfortable with Debian or Linux in general (or people who prefer Ubuntu as a base).
There's also LMDE if you want a Debian base.
@BlameTheAntifa, I disagree. To test your claim, I ran a search with admin privileges for snap
and snapd
on my Kubuntu LTS workstation, and there's no trace of it.
Also, the following is from a query to Gemini Flash 2.5:
Kubuntu's minimal install, especially in version 24.04 and later, generally does not install any Snap packages and often leaves out the
snapd
service by default, resulting in a snap-free system. Be cautious, as installing certain common applications like Firefox from the default repositories may still pull insnapd
as a dependency.
What's wrong with snaps? I'm relatively new to Linux and keep hearing people banging on about them.
snaps are similar to flatpaks, little containers that hold apps that can be sandboxed for security, reproducibility, and convenience. cannonical decided to push their own snaps over flatpak, a widly accepted standard. the big problem with snaps is the store where you get them is proprietary, and they will sneakily install snaps instead of standard packages when you try to install programs you didn't realize we're even snaps.

So Ubuntu in human form looks like one of Saddam Hussain's decoys? Interesting.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong here but Ubuntu is based off of Debian, therefore Ubuntu based distros are actually Debian based?
Or do they all have the same snap integration like Ubuntu does?
Ubuntu is Debian based yes. Not all ubuntu-based comes with snap (for example Mint). Sometimes I think "why are there so many different distros? We only need like five of them", but then, sometimes I think it's a strength, each distro exploring a new direction to see what works.
That is the original from? I'm guessing some look alike competition.
I'd love to use that as a meme template.
I wish I knew. I just found this meme on findthatmeme.com
As a user of Green Ubuntu, I feel personally attacked.
As a user of Red Ubuntu, I feel personally hot.
