From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I wish they could just bring back PWA's. The PWA extension doesn't work with the dumb snap Firefox.
Don't use snap.
i really dont understand the snap packages argument, care to elaborate?
Its simply because its slow and bulky and the snap store is not open source and themes wont work on it.
