Can someone tell me why you refused to support Snap packages? As far as I remember, there was a message that Solus developers removed Snap support from the Linux kernel. Why?

    Dropping snap support significantly reduces the the maintenance burden for kernel maintainers, as they no longer have to deal with syncing up a bunch of patches from Canonical. I don't know if that's the only reason. I doubt it is.

    Pure speculation here: it seems to me that snaps have become less popular in the last year or two across many Linux distributions. Flatpak (and to a lesser extent appimage) has more or less won the universal-linux-app-format battle, so removing it from Solus aligns us with broader Linux trends and user expectations. Again, pure speculation.

        I'll have to inform you that this guy is not German at all.

        As @infinitymdm alluded to it's not so much removing it from the kernel as no carrying an extra patch set for the kernel, which could delay kernel updates significantly, especially if Canonical skips a kernel update that Solus would like to use.
