Snap causes problems even when your home directory is real, as they prevent opening anything symlinked or behind an NFS mount. This makes, for example, Chromium browser effectively unusable for me.

For Chromium there's the obvious workaround of installing non-snap version from Debian repository (which I have done), but if I have to start doing that for more and more packages, switching to Debian completely quickly becomes the path of least resistance.

Snap isn't really ready for prime time and its use should be limited to non-critical, experimental packages only.
