Bug Description
Currently, ubuntu recommends installing snap by default, and some apps are slowly transitioning from DEB-based installation to Snap-based installation.
APT is great, and facilitates having a clean, maintainable system.
The snap project is not very well designed or engineered (just changing the location of where snap data is located is taking the project more than 5 years because it was hardcoded: https:/
I'd like to request that Ubuntu stops recommending snap, stops transitioning towards snaps, and we come back to defaulting to DEB/APT-based installation for all apps.
