Notable in that they raise concern about Canonical controlling snap app distribution. It strikes me as a legitamate threat to linux if one format controlled by a single vendor gains dominance in the ecosystem. Especially because a number of big vendors such as spotify and jetbrains are choosing snap as the way forward.

The entire issue would be alleviated if snap allowed others to host their own store fronts in a similar manner as flatpak.
