Put another way. I personally feel bad for this person. I'm not saying others should. I don't care if Juan believes this person deserves this. Point is this person made some choices that resulted in losing 9 BTC. These are choices that most stackers would not make. If they asked me I would have told them pretty much what Juan writes. People have a false sense of security in general. It would be nice if you could trust package managers for bitcoin but really you can't.
None of that excuses Canonical. I wasn't using snaps and I never will.
#1 rule of Bitcoin - Trust no one.
He trusted: a package manager + a shitcoin wallet + his internet connected device.
Rekt.

I'm sure you build all your distros by hand, write all your own software, and manually solder the components of your PC together, since you don't trust anyone
