For me I was always interested in alternative OS’. I didn’t necessarily dislike windows, I just thought Linux was fascinating and liked playing around with the different ways to do things and accomplish tasks.
It was only later in life that I learned how excessive windows data collection was and became uncomfortable with using it that I began to seek out linux as a full alternative and try to decouple myself from the windows ecosystem.
I don’t know enough to dislike snaps, I’m just spiteful enough to dislike cannonical trying to force me to use them
