I see people hate snap packaging and removing it if their OS support it. Is it because it’s NOT fully open-source or just due to how the technology works?

Update: fixed typos

    tldr;

    canonical …

    1. keepes the snap store closed source and all snap packages and distribution under their control
    2. “silently” replaces packages (like firefox) with their snap versions
    3. will completly remove support for alternatives (like flatpak)
