Ubuntu Snap Store looked messy years ago.
Why let people upload half baked software and experiments, which get no updates, but add to search engine results ?
https://snapcraft.io/search?q=testWe’ve found 815 snaps
One of the downsides to hardcoding snap to only be able to use a single repo/store is probably added difficulty in creating testing infra for testing if uploads/CI/CD work.
A basic buildable snap that is expected to be published in public mode
Maybe if they didn’t insist on holding a monopoly over the store, they would be able to have an internal version of the store for testing, rather than cluttering the public one.

Yeah but then they can’t pivot to charging for updates.
Oof. Never thought to test that. That’s awful 😬
