A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Yeah I started in the Red Hat 2 era, played with all the WMs and DEs, compiled my own kernel a few times. After a point I had too much going on in my life to tinker with my distro. My needs are simple, I just need a terminal and a package manager.

Snaps have issues sure, but anything is better than the dependency hell of old.

Use what works. It's really that simple.

Would recommend Debian then. The switch was pretty smooth for me. Almost everything worked the same, but without the snaps.
