Re:Ubuntu 20.04 LTS’ snap obsession has snapped me off of it

You could give this a try combined with something like the ungoogled-chromium PPA:
sudo apt-get autoremove snapd
sudo apt-mark hold snapd
(I use apt-mark and some custom scripting to defer nVidia driver updates until system boot to ensure that they don't yank libGL function out from under me at an inopportune time.)
If it doesn't work sufficiently well when I'm ready to upgrade from 16.04 LTS, then I'm switching to Debian. (I'd intended to be on 18.04 LTS by now, but life doesn't always cooperate and I haven't found time to risk a day or two of squashing upgrade-induced bugs)
