From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I didn't say it was tantamount to rape. Don't try to make out that I'm saying anything like that. You know I'm not. Stop the absurdity.
Ubuntu would forcibly install the snap version of programs even when you specifically use the terminal to install the deb.
If you want your PC to do that then again, whatever, I genuinely don't care. If your workflow and distro works for you then I'm happy for you. You have your PC however you want it. If your workflow works best with Canonical second-guessing you, then continue with it. Use what works for you.
I just like my PC doing what I tell it to do, not what I specifically told it not to do.
It is insanity that you're trying to make my criticism of that sound like I'm saying what Canonical is doing is the equivalent or rape. Have a word with yourself.
sigh I love a good old internet "I didn't say that - yes you did - no I said - you really meant though" bullshit argument...
I said "like it's rape or something" - I didn't say you're saying it's "tantamount to rape". Settle down. I'm just talking about the language people use like they're being personally violated by snaps.
Now show me on the doll where snap touched you...
ESL or just pretending like you don't know those are the same thing?
Theyre literally just using the words to describe what is happening, why are you being weird about it?
Getting hardcore incel vibes from your attitude, might wanna work on that
I love the arrogance of telling somebody what they mean even though that person clearly indicates it's not what they mean. Like you know better what's in my mind.
You've descended into "I just need to be right" now. No point discussing anything.
You used words that mean something. If your half baked mind has invented new meanings for the word that's on you, not me
I never wasn't
You'd have to be coherent for that first
You literally said "like it's rape"
Like: similar to; the same as
Tantamount: being almost the same as something, usually something bad.
So yes, you were definitely putting words in my mouth that snaps installing when the user goes to install a .deb is tantamount to raping someone.
Clearly an attempt at discrediting my completely reasonable complaint with one of the most absurd false equivalences I've ever heard in my life.
