Ubuntu's Snap Nightmare: Why I Switched to Fedora

For a long time, Ubuntu was my go-to Linux distro. However, starting around 2016, every upgrade brought its share of problems, ranging from minor icon glitches to complete system crashes. The worst upgrade even resulted in my mother's laptop needing a Windows reinstall.
Canonical's aggressive push of Snaps only exacerbated the issues. Snaps' automatic updates and conflicts with traditional Debian packages led to numerous compatibility problems and functional failures, significantly impacting productivity. I even witnessed a colleague lose an entire workday due to GNOME desktop environment Snap issues.
In contrast, Flatpak's implementation is far more reasonable. I eventually switched to Fedora, which, while not perfect, has proven stable and reliable, and my experience so far has been positive. Hopefully, Canonical will reconsider its approach to building a Linux distro.
