How does the snap store have worse moderation than flathub when the snap store has the weight of a company behind it and flathub is run by [nervously notices it doesn’t say]?
canonical has a history of massacring their distro in the worst way imaginable. They’re specially gifted in this way.
“I don’t know, I can imagine quite a lot.”
AUR my beloved
See Fedora has COPR which is like AUR if it were a version specific dead mall which 50% of the time makes you compile from source anyway lol
Mixed bag
Agreed. There has been cases of malware sneaking its way into the AUR.
Now it could be avoided by checking PKGBUILDs and I can trust that the reader is checking those (are you, reader? 🤨). But do you have that trust for every user?
I prefer Void Linux’s way of handling packages, where it all goes through one ultimately trusted git repo that gets packaged up if the license allows it, otherwise using
xbps-src. If it was a bit less DIY compared to Arch I’d be hopping onto it tbh.
I’m lost, does Ubuntu give you a pop up with this or something?
I believe these are there fake scam apps that got published on snap recently. This was the second time it happened.
Third time it happened. And this time the scammer have republished the apps like… 6 times
Bruh. Isn’t stopping this type of activity the whole point of cannonicle controlling the store?
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a worse misspelling of Canonical yet. Congratulations, that’s an achievement.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more useless comment yet. Congratulations, that’s an achievement.
The Canonical cycle:
Canonical solves a problem nobody was experiencing or needed a resolution for
Canonical pushes problem resolution as a major component of Ubuntu
“Resolution” impacts Ubuntu use negatively
Users get the pitchforks
Canonical kind of mitigates the issue somewhat but not completely
Canonical goes back to thinking about problems nobody is having
Repeat ad nauseam
