Yeah, that sucks. I would still want it if I were to use Fedora, as an option.

I checked and Fedora dropped support for the snap plugin. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/enable-snap-in-gnome-software/76134
These are also the only packages related to gnome-software:
Related Packages
gnome-software-devel
gnome-software-fedora-langpacks
gnome-software-rpm-ostree
From what I remember, their gnome-software already has flatpak support. So all that will be missing is the GUI snap support. Could've been worse.
I added sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-snap gnome-software-plugin-flatpak gnome-software
Looks like Fedora does not have gnome-software-plugin-snap or gnome-software-plugin-flatpak in its repos.
I don't wish to learn Nix. I'm perfectly fine with Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora. When a new version comes out, all I have to do is change the versions of the extensions according to the new Gnome version.
Nope, I don't touch the snap-store on Ubuntus (to be fair I don't install any snap plugins for gnome software center on Debian/Fedora either). As for flatpak, it's installed via apt from the regular repos. I didn't even know there was an up to date PPA.
I know about this but that's meant for 18.04 and earlier.
Edit: these are good suggestions tho. Something to work on to improve it even more.
inb4 snap bad, they are bash scripts. Anyone can delete any command they don't like.
Will there be a linux version?
As a fellow Ubuntu user, I think there are distros that are technically superior. But at some point I just got tired of chasing the best option. I just want an operating system that works on all devices I install it to, and that listens to my commands. Ubuntu does that just fine. I love what they've done with GNOME, its ram usage is minimal (1.4GB), apps launch fast, snap is nicer to use than flatpak (which I can install with a single command), and if I wanted to I can stick to an LTS for up to 12 years.

e621, a furry image forum, will be forced to verify their users identities if this bill passes

Here's a link to the news. https://e621.net/news_updates
Edit: As people in the comments pointed out, this bill targets all websites hosting porn. e621 just happens to be hosted in Arizona, and it therefore affects them directly.
That's what I used to think as well actually. I opened it, saw the airplane control center, and closed it. But then I volunteered for editing a photo for my school, and I had to learn how to effectively create borders around the text, as I would have to makes a lot of changes to them. So I searched and came across this video. And then I understood that GIMP is actually a really powerful tool, you just have to learn how the developers intended you to work with it. Admittedly, having to use the drop shadow feature for text borders is pretty retarded, but it lets you fine tune the how the end result will look.

You can't tell them you are sentient either as they might think it's a bug, and delete you

I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.
I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.
The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.

I was recommended this https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.vikdevelop.SaveDesktop Seems very user friendly and can do everything except for installing software.
