That's pretty cool to hear

Hopefully they'll support a large swath of Qualcomm CPUs

Hopefully this means Qualcomm is going to support mainline Linux instead of just supporting their downstream fork.

In the worst timeline drivers and firmware get distributed through snaps with a mandatory account login.

Knock on wood..

You joke, but drivers living in userspace would be cool. I love mikrokernels, but if that means snap, I'm not using it.
