In case anyone wants it, here's the cover file.

I would suggest not judging distros by what the online community says.

Install Ubuntu and see whether you encounter any issues. If not, who cares about what some meme says.

Pretty much. Canonical made a few questionable choices in the past but overall they've done a lot for the Linux community. And their distro is very good. There is a reason why distros choose it as their base.

I dare say that allowing any distro to use their repos is pretty generous, and gives back to the community. They have no obligation to open source Snapcraft's server, and snapd being able to install snaps locally is more than enough.

I don't see how this matters.

Let's look at the very worst case possible scenario: Everyone abandons Flatpak and AppImage and moves to Snapcraft, and Canonical decides to make a decision that destroys the store.

You can still install FOSS apps from somewhere, at worst compile them.

All that would be lost if Snapcradt stopped existing are the proprietary apps, which you wouldn't use anyways.

Not gonna lie, that's concerning.

So are the drivers your computer likely relies on. Are you willing to buy a thinkpad from 2005 and use a random FSF approved distro?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 month ago

Agreed. I was inspired to make this masterpiece while reading the comments on my previous meme.

How does Canonical disrespect your rights?

Flatpak can't run CLI apps. Also, they started around the same time. Flatpak in 2015 and Snap in 2016. This is like saying dnf shouldn't exist because apt is a thing.

Why would Canonical abandon their own solution because some people online complain?

You could run one and use the other within a distrobox container I suppose

Edit: As people in the comments pointed out, this bill targets all websites hosting porn. e621 just happens to be hosted in Arizona, and it therefore affects them directly.
