Out of interest do you feel that Kubuntu and whatnot feels very much corporation run now - like its coming close to Microsoft version of Linux?

Kde neon user here, so kubuntu with latest kde apps.

No not even close. I can turn off any reporting and tracking. Yes cononical is moving more and more towards snaps but i can always just download and use the deb or flatpack

Remind me, snap uses that partition for the application right?

Sorry I'm sort of catching up on a few years out.

But then you lose the benefit of the package manager, which is like 99% of the convenience.
