Why did you disable snaps on the first day of using Linux?

[–] joshcodes@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That sentence should probably read "on my first day of using Linux outside of a vm on bare metal with an installation I intended to keep". I use Kali for security work and I used Manjaro once but it killed itself before I knew what I was doing.

Snaps are not very space efficient, I don't need the same packages installed multiple times. In a desktop use case that's a lot of repeating packages.

I think you're gonna have a bad time since that's essentially what all the newer formats do (flatpak, snap, appimage).
