   LM does a *great* job of using Ub repo/s while eschewing many of Ub's   
   bad decisions such as Gnome per se and Snap, while allowing the   
   alternative flatpak; and also keeping its hand in Debian, in case   
   he/they decide to dump Ub entirely.   
      
   In a way, the snap 'system' and controversy has resemblances to the   
   systemd system; altho' I think systemd has enough advantages to justify   
   its existence and 'domination' whereas the same doesn't apply to snap, IMO.
