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
I love the AUR as much as the next guy, but audited, it ain’t.
the AUR and wiki are the only reasons i use arch
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
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?
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
Interesting… I never got into Ubuntu because of the look but everything I read about it sounds like a headache. I’ve totally seen the exact cycle you described multiple times.
I actually am okay with the appearance, but there is just way too much emphasis on doing things that the user base doesn’t care about, instead of actually fixing bugs with the product and solidifying it. Which, okay, I guess some folks are fine with that, but being the most popular distro, why try to drive so much innovation at the expense of stability?
I just revisited it a short while ago on hardware that had actual 16.04 compatibility confirmed by vendor back in the day and it was a battery hog and a call tracing dumpster fire on 23.10. Then I switch to Debian 12 and not a single problem. I don’t get it.
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.
Exactly the same scam apps too
Some guy lost a good chunk of his crypto bullshit because there was a scam wallet on the Snap Store. I believe Popey did an audit of it and called it to the attention of the admins who removed it. It came back.

Also where the fuck is Bisq? The only one that should be on the list.
Too bad they don’t have an (official) flatpak.
I don’t feel sorry for them, that’s well deserved
they let the fucking apps back on a day later 😭😭
