I like how tailscale needs a special ppa added to install on ubuntu, but Canonical suggests you use the snap they make, but the snap is broken in several key features, such as the ability to use tailscale with ssh.

Because who needs to use wireguard for ssh, right?

right?

(it's fine, I'm installing the deb straight from the vendor, but omg this is the first time I've used main branch Ubuntu in years and the small mistakes Canonical has made over the years are really really obvious)

@Dio9sys@haunted.computer This is something that drives me bonkers from even a Developer perspective.

Software requires docker...WHICH FUCKING ONE IS INSTALLED? podman? docker.io? docker CE?

Was it from apt? Did you add the official PPA? Or did you get a snap from some dark, dingy corner of GitHub?

Each version is different in some way.

@stroz@infosec.exchange and then you throw your hands up and go "idk, I guess I'll use the flatpak"

but then, to your horror, you installed the Fedora flatpak instead of the Normal Person flatpak

@Dio9sys@haunted.computer It's a mess, and I have no answers for how to fix it lol

@Dio9sys@haunted.computer Developing software on Linux almost makes me feel like I'm making the problem worse when I have to conform to how Linux deals with software 🙃🙃
