LLM demonstrated once again how open source was just the right thing both from the ethical, technical and market pov.

Companies relying in selling blobs have just no value now. The ones selling services and using open source models are just ahead of times.

Are you telling me that to me who installed his current production system using lucid lynx (e.g. 10.04 - you can do the math)?!?

You can just use both in any distro. Really no difference.

Unless that snap allows lower level usage (services, kernel...)

I understand in part what you mean, but ubuntu is also a disto that many users relay on for its stability and reliability, not just for being an hacker toy.

I still use like that and anyone can, but normal users are the main target.

We do for good parts.

For example, in the gnome team we do the uploads first to debian then we merge them with the Ubuntu changes if any, but we try as much as possible to use the same sources for both.

Check debian salsa to see the differences.

It has the same base but definitely not the same support nor immediately neither in the long term

Replace snap with flatpak and the same definition still stands for both.

> Just like they wasted time and effort on Unity and shuttered it in favor of Gnome

Unity served well for years, it would have needed a rewrite anyway for the post x11 era, so indeed there have been wasted resources, but experiments are also important in technology, and many still love what was (is) the unity user experience.

> and they wasted time and effort on Mir and shuttered it in favor of Wayland

Mir is still there and it's used. It's now a Wayland compositor but it maintains its API, the different communication protocol doesn't change its purposes.

> and they wasted time and effort on Upstart and shuttered it in favor of systemd.

When Upstart started and was used no systemd existed or was designed, so it served many well for years. Not a waste.
