I use Ubuntu and i'm sick of having snaps forced on me. When I next install, i'm either completely ridding the system of snap or i use another distro. I'm fed up with it.

The kicker is sometimes when you use apt to install a package, sometimes it installs a snap! It's madness!

I recommend Pop!_OS (despite the stupid name). It is basically Ubuntu without the annoying bits.

Pop!_OS is good, but going from Ubuntu to Pop!_OS doesn't really help with the Snaps issue.

What are the programs that you've had to install through snap?

Or are you talking about the existence of snap on the system in general?

Personally I have not a single snap packge installed, and am usually able to find sources for the programs I use elswhere than in the snap ecosystem.

Firefox is a snap by default
