Hi,
Again kind of new to recent Linux, so I'm not aware of using snap, but I think some stuff I have installed does (I've got Qt Creator, Visual Code, LibreOffice on the system).
The SD card is ext4 format.
Even though File manager shows the files\folders of the SD card I never see a mount point in /media for it, unlike as you do for USB sticks.
From my point of view a SD card should act exactly like a USB stick does from a file manager perspective - which this isn't doing.
Why isn't there a clear separation between all block devices and the rest of the OS, so that the Ubuntu front end can always act consistently regardless of the device, and so that all block devices are always developed and delivered against a consistent interface spec. It would make life a lot easier.
I'll read up on snapd in the meantime.
