From reading this that's not the whole story. Someone working at canonical successfully made a version of snap that could use alternative stores, but the default version does not allow it

And honestly at the point of installing that modified version you may as well just install a different package manager anyway

Or better yet, a different OS.

Might I suggest NixOS best package manager out there imo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
