If only. It’d be a real April fool’s if Canonical announced they were abandoning snap and throwing their supory behind flatpak.

Having other 180° turnarounds in mind, e.g. Unity, which was nice on a netbook, or their display server (I don’t recall its name), would it be that surprising if this was real news? This makes it a really good April Fool’s joke.

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.
