From a ~/snap directory that can't be hidden by design (and the developers are rather vocal about that) to the snap experience of every application seeing their own version of the file system, no thank you. It's not for me. Debian is a delight after Ubuntu.

I tore it out a couple times. I’m switching to another distro entirely. In part because the last time I tried to remove it I either didn’t remember how or the old way doesn’t work anymore.

I would recommend choosing a distro that doesn’t use it.

- Sometimes its still slow compared to just apt installing something.

- Sometimes it still does not honor configs from the base system, like theming and fonts.

- I REALLY do not appreciate how it craps all over my lsblk.
