Recommend Mint instead. Flatpak instead of snap.

Some tools go out of their way to whine piteously if they can't find Ubuntu in /etc/issue et al. We were using Mint, just got tired of messing with installation scripts every time an upgrade came. And as the transition to Linux accelerates, it's just more convenient to stick with whatever the vendor wants.

If those tools are open source, fix them. If they're not open source, don't use them. Problem solved.

It's not hard to write an installation script.
