Thunderbird goes from DEB to snap in Ubuntu 24.04
The open secret has been confirmed: Thunderbird will be offered as a snap package in Ubuntu 24.04 when its stable version arrives.
You're viewing a single thread.
Who cares?
Ubuntu is a shell of what it once was. They're not going to make Snap optional, they need to justify its existence by releasing everything as snaps with no alternative so you have to use it.
Or, just use Debian if you like Debian-style distros?
Or, wait for it - this is gonna sound a bit radical but hear me out - give Fedora a try? Flatpak instead and unlike Debian Stable has packages from this century
Inb4 btw I use Arch
like Debian Stable has packages from this century
You can set up Debian 12 to use Flatpak. I use it and it works well.
Yes, you can sideload apps from this century into Debian and run them in an isolated environment with dependencies also from this century :)
Tbh I'm surprised that the Debian kernel is new enough to support cgroups /s
Hey now, I'm an Arch user but Debian stable was protected from the XZ backdoor due to the release delay.
