I’m not certain but I believe it has been the default in 22.10 and newer.
Canonical has been pushing their less portable Snap solution and moving away from traditional packages.
This means:
- They are the sole store host and decide what is allowed.
- The apps can be less secure or totally broken on other distros.
- The tooling to make snaps heavily incentivize only using Ubuntu as a base.
A dns blocker cannot do anything more than ublock. It is nice for other apps though.
I’ve improved my life quite a lot but it’s hard to give advice to others.
The comparison mindset is really bad though. It literally doesn’t matter what another monkey on this planet does. Your thoughts about how to improve your life are ones you have to discuss with yourself (maybe guided by a therapist). There is no wrong way to live but you have to make the choice on how you want to.
TL;DR for anybody worried.
systemd-tmpfiles --purgewas too broad in scope (and has a confusing name) so now you must be more specific when using it to avoid accidentally deleting things.
