    As a snap package maintainer i find it weird that there weren't any guardrails in place to avoid situations like this, considering that the main snap consumer are Ubuntu users and Ubuntu is from canonical.

    I guess I should've set my expectations a bit lower

        It's not that they don't work better in conjunction, it's canonical's lack of moderation in the snapcraft store.

        This could've avoided day one by adding a manual review process (like what they are temporarily doing right now)

        I don't know how flathub handles new package submissions, but I think that they definitely need to have a process similar to what other distros have in place for native packages (heck, even Ubuntu's own repos have a review process)

      you confuse canonical with fedora or rhel standard… which… is sad… but at least flatpak is the savior in the end. haha…

        Yeah, my bad 😅

        I've forgotten that Canonical is not like Fedora or Red Hat

        …but at least flatpak is the savior in the end.

        Flatpak definitely has a potential, I use them daily. Haven't had any issues so far
