I’m planning on moving to linux from windows(personal) and macos(work use), although I prefer mac os, so I don’t really want to use mint, and I feel like I should add that I don’t care if GNOME isn’t that similar to macos, I want something different, and I also use my computer for gaming
PopOS for sure. Ubuntu hasn’t been great lately.
Why PopOS and why isn’t Ubuntu great lately? Did I miss something?

Look under Snap
Gotcha. Thanks for sharing. We’ll see what happens with Snap. I mostly use APT anyway. I had some few cases of Snap where it even wouldn’t update itself.
The thing is, sometimes apt install uses snap…
I’m willing to bet snap is here to stay. Unless Ubuntu saw a drop in users since this was announced, and I haven’t heard anything of the sort except anecdotes.
Snap is important for Ubuntu’s embedded and cloud ambitions. It is not going anywhere. At least, that is my opinion.
I do not use Ubuntu ( for a few reasons - including Snap ).
But why not just uninstall snap and install flatpack?
Because Ubuntu will reinstall snapd during some updates and then try to replace some native apt packages to snap
