Snap is stupid, slow and lame. I stopped using Ubuntu just because I hate snaps. I just want to install my programs the normal way and avoid issues.

"stupid" and "lame" are a matter of taste, but "slow" is testable, and they're quite fast these days. They have their uses, especially on embedded devices and servers, but I get your point. Flatpak is my go-to.
