I've not used Ubuntu based since pop 22.04, so sorry for the misinformed question. What's the user facing issue with snap? I know the repos are solely managed by Ubuntu, but I didn't have any issue I could attribute to snap. Actually I liked it had terminal app support, not only graphical ones like flatpak (last I checked at least)
It's slow, and not great for desktop usage. Also, some apt packages have been transformed into snaps. If you do
sudo apt install firefoxit no longer installs the deb version, but the snap. I (and probably many other people) don't like this lack of transparency and choice. It just feels like getting snaps pushed down our throats.That id my main issue. The lack of transparency send me down a bug hunt for a few hours before I realized apt installed a snap package. Makes me angry for some reason, but now I know
That's my main issue with it, it makes your system dependent on a platform solely owned and controlled by Cannonical
