    Depends on what you consider "working", having my calculator and browser load for a minute or two before being able to do anyting and being unable to keep a specific software version as long as I need to doesn't really work for me.

    You can only lock them for a while last tine I checked, can't you?

    I've needed an old GIMP version before for a project I was working on. I wasn't using Ubuntu at the time, but would've been pretty screwed if it just updated itself after X months.

    Did they fix the Snap startup time, finally?

    I'm specifically talking about Snaps, I have no issues with native packages and controlling them. The problem is, since apt has become a wrapper for snap in Ubuntu, I can't even really tell what's being installed anymore.

    If you have some weird requirements about holding back packages and startup times that doesn't work with snaps but you insist on using ubuntu rather than every other distro that doesn't use snap... But at the same time say linux as a whole doesn't work for you but windows is better then you are being completely disingenuous.

    That rage was why I switched lol. All our work computers are on 11 and they frequently reset so almost every time I log in I get to freshly rage and spend a minute resetting the task bar and default adobe to the pdf reader.

    No Microsoft! I cant use edge as a pdf editor why on earth would you think that.

    AND WHY CANT I MOVE THE TASKBAR
