hi people. i’d like to ask those of you who have deeper insight into the technical aspects regarding the move from click to snap. as far as i have understood, the fp2 will not be capable of running snap packages, right? in the light of reading that the email client dekko will no longer be developed (while still getting bug fixes) for click but only for snap i wonder, if using ubuntu on fp2 has to be considered as something which would be called “riding a dead horse” in german. meaning: if i would be using ubuntu on my fp2, is there any chance i can run decent software in two years? will the community try to make snap work or will we be stuck with outdated os and software? background: i’d like to have an os which i can use steadily for several years and not to have to switch every second year. right now i am running sailfish os which works quite well, but as we all know, jolla’s future is constantly uncertain. this doesn’t mean i have deeper insights, at the moment they seem to do very well. ubuntu seems nice, too, but as written above, i would want to run an os with abright future.
so, can anyone of you enlighten me and explain what the move means for ubuntu’s future on fp2?
cheers!
