**LANGUAGE WARNING** I dropped the F bomb a couple of times. If that offends you move on to some other video. You all totally missed the point of my last video. You were thinking I was praising snaps. I was not. I said a lot of the hate that snaps get is not true and the vast majority of Ubuntu's users do not care about snaps. In this video I explain how you missed the point and why. I also explain how easy it is to remove snaps entirely if you feel you must use Ubuntu but hate snaps. Of course, obviously easiest solution is to just use a different distro that doesnt have snap. But if you do that, then what would you have to complain about? Commands from the video: snap list sudo snap remove --purge snap-name Do these last sudo snap remove --purge snapd sudo apt remove --autoremove snapd Then block snapd by creating a file at /etc/apt/preferences.d/nosnap.pref Use what ever text editor you lke. Im using vim. sudo vim /etc/apt/preferences.d/nosnap.pref Add this to that file: # To prevent repository packages from triggering the installation of snap, # this file forbids snapd from being installed by APT. Package: snapd Pin: release a=* Pin-Priority: -10

I go through the beta Ubuntu 24.04 from an average user's pov. I show that a lot of the "hate" that was thrown at Ubuntu is unfounded and mostly people just hating on Ubuntu because its the "cool" thing to do.

How I update my blog using github & Jekyll. If you would like an in depth tutorial style let me know in the comments. It only looks hard but in practice it's very easy.

Just a few quick words for this gen z'er. Welcome to adult hood. It sucks just starting out in life for everybody. It did for me 30+ years ago and it doesnt get any easier the older you get. Adulting sucks, so buckle up buttercup. It all up hill from here on out.
