    Ok but KDE has official Snap packages so they already are “legitimizing it”. Also snap won’t be able to entshittify anything. Snapd is still open source, so you can just repackage the software for different package system.

      My guy. There is no open backend for Snap. If Ubuntu enshittifies Snap, nobody can host an alternate backend for them. How does the client being open source help you?

          Okay, and how does snapd being open source help with that? It literally has no effect on it.

          And when your best argument is “if it gets enshittified you can switch off of it”, why help it get popular in the first place?
