Agreed I practically switched from Ubuntu to Fedora only because of Snap, especially because the subtle attempt at installing snaps when you intended to install .Deb packages via apt-get

Not sure that’s a good thing.

It’s my own system and I’m root of it, if I want to run a program that inspects every bit of thing, including keylog myself I should be perfectly able to do it.

This kind of limitations are fake security, because Wayland is as secure as the rest of the stack it lies on top, it can’t add any more security than what Linux itself can guarantee. So yes, I can still read dev input and keylog myself anyway, it’s just more frustrating.

I have been using OSX since it was born because it was an amazing UNIX system and a convenient user environment. I moved back to Linux as my daily driven when they started introducing a tons of blockers to whatever I wanted to do “for security reasons”. “Oh you want to debug your own software?” “Nah, I can’t allow you to trace state of another process, I don’t care you are root” and so on…

“usage out of all open source social media platforms”

Does that surprise you? Have you considered the different effort it takes between posting a message on Mastodon, taking a picture on Pixelfed or starting a thread on Lemmy/Piefed?

Making a video takes much more effort, sometimes hours. It’s only natural that the ratio of produced contented is not comparable to other “OpenSource social media platforms”
