I'd love to agree but unfortunately with them pushing snaps I can't. When I used snaps I found them to be extremely buggy and if I didn't already know there were other distributions with other better package managers I would've straight up assumed it was a Linux problem and I'd just have gone back to windows. If there was no other Noob-friendly distro out there I could say "sure it's an ok distro" but there are better alternatives that don't do the same shitty decisions as canonical (like Linux Mint which is the one I recommend to every noob coming from windows or Pop_OS! for those who want something similiar to MacOS).
