Ubuntu's Mozillateam PPA now forcing users over to snap install for Firefox.
What use to be the PPA that allowed Ubuntu users to use native .deb packages for Firefox has recently changed to the same meta package that forces installation of Snap and the Firefox snap package.
I am having to remove the meta package, then re-uninstall the snap firefox, then re-uninstall Snap, then install pin the latest build I could get (firefox_116.0.3+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1_arm64.deb) to keep the native firefox build.
I'm so done with Ubuntu.

Well fuck snaps. Been using ubuntu for over 15 years and finally starting to move elsewhere, begrudgingly. Finally have had enough after latest lts release.
Come join us on NixOS, we have declarative state management and also chocolate chip cookies
Well, no, you have to declare the chocolate chip cookies in your configuration.nix, then run update to make Nix cook them for you
That way you get the exact same cookie every time
