So does a folder full of libs, if needs be, a chroot, no need for snap nonsense.
I'm happy to see everyone is agreed that snap is awful. Ubuntu are forcing something, Linux people like simple, and we like choice.
Rarely see 100% upvotes in el reg, someone should send this comment stream to Ubuntu in the hope they back off.
I dont mind that snap exists but forcing people to use it, shows how bad it is.
You can't get a non snap app in Ubuntu app store. You have to sell you soul and say goodbye to everyday stuff like /etc access. I tried. Once. Never again.
The idea that its hard to maintain snap and .deb for chromium is a straight up lie. Snap packaging is hard, (they keep changing the rules) packaging .debs is trivial. Speaking from experiece packaging chromium.
