I think he uses a profanity or two, but in proper context and the material is worthwhile. The last time I used Ubuntu, you could easily remove their crappy Snap though it was a pain to remove the snap Firefox and replace it with the Mozilla deb package and their repository. Snap is Ubuntu’s version of Red Hat’s Flatpak, which essentially are applications with dependencies in a kind of virtualization environment, and a terrible way of distributing applications if you value your time or disk space. I always thought Snap and Red Hat’s Flatpak were ways of implementing an app store from which to profit like the Google Play Store or Apple’s version, but I’m thinking this is more nefarious, in that they might be moving to locking down what applications you can run with more spying. Consequently, Ubuntu was one of the first distributions to put in telemetry which at one point was a pain to remove, though last time I installed Ubuntu you could easily disable it (if you trust them). Also, Canonical is also moving towards dropping X.Org to only include Wayland, which has got to be for bossware and spying, possibly with hooks for AI. All that to say, I agree with the premise that Ubuntu has become a cancer in free software.
