When you double click on a deb package in Ubuntu 23.10 an error appears to tell you "there is no app installed for 'Debian package' files". In this post I
I thought that perhaps Ubuntu were done with screwing the community after they forced snaps on their users.
Just when I thought, ok that’s it what worse could they do?, then they pull this nonsense!
They really, really don’t want the user to have control of the system do they? They think we are dumb and need a walled garden experience like Apple where you only get apps from Snaps or the repo.
And frankly it’s against the principles of FOSS where the foundation is to protect user freedom.
I moved to Mint when this snaps thing made me feel up. And as soon as LMDE 6 came out I immediately switched to that .
I highly recommend everyone abandon Ubuntu and Fedora - the two Corporation backed distros - and use only 100% independent distros like LMDE or Debian or any of the others.
And if you’re using a distro that is Ubuntu or Fedora based pressure the dev to move to Debian or opensuse. Or any other independent base.
If we don’t take action as a community eventually new users will become accustomed to this BS and will never know what it’s like to use REAL Linux.

What is the problem with Fedora?
Basically it’s Red Hat which is IBM. The same Red Hat that basically making it difficult for the community to make Fedora compatible server OS’.
They consider the community free loaders.
This is basically anti Libre/FOSS in spirit.
So why should we help them improve Fedora, which eventually becomes Red Hat Enterprise, if they aren’t willing to share their server code?
Basically they have zero regard for the Linux community (user’s and Devs)
