I don't understand #canonical affinity to #snap .

It's complete garbage. Try to add a corporate CA to a Chromium browser, installed on Ubuntu via Snap.

Good luck.

1. Snap is not enterprise compatible. That's where the money is.

2. Snap pulls in Gnome 3. No one uses Gnome 3 because it's a UX disaster.

3. Snap has a different update cycle.

You don't have to use it. I get it. That isn't the point. It should be discontinued.
