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?

    Bloat and coersion from canonical when using Ubuntu.

    Also I hate typing mount on my home machine and sifting through a sea of mountpoints.

      Same. I end up either grep -v -e tmps and loop mounts or mount -t for each type of physical mount. I suppose lsblk and findmnt might have better options and views.

          oh? When I run lsblk all of the docker overlay mounts are omitted. It does show loop devices, but otherwise it was the list of physical devices.

          Looking at the man page it looks like df lets you exclude types too: df -h -x tmpfs -x overlay.

            When I run lsblk with no flags/parameters I get 18 lines of loop devices. Sure I could issue the command again and pipe thru grep to remove all the lines that have “snap” since I forgot to do it this time. I propose “snap” because couldn’t I have non snap-related loop devices?
