I think the bad vibes come from the fact that Snap is a proprietary, walled-garden system owned by Canonical. The server is not open source, so no one else can run their own Snap Store.

It's antithetical to pretty much everything about what we think of as a "Linux distro".

I would absolutely never run Ubuntu or install Snap because of this. I'll stick with Debian, thanks.
