No not at all. It’s considered a convenience because it gives easy access to packages not available via apt. As far as I’m aware that’s really the only advantage.

However, between the cache, and disk space use and strange presence when you type dr command I believe most find it too intrusive.

When you need to join Ubuntu to active directory some snapped applications stopped working correctly. this allowed me to solve those issues. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

I tried to remove snap from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS VM today. But its also removing ubuntu-server-minimal.

So I just disabled instead.

sudo systemctl disable snapd.service
sudo systemctl disable snapd.socket
sudo systemctl disable snapd.seeded.service
sudo systemctl mask snapd.service
