For me it is just Firefox that I don't want in snap form. The Mozilla team still puts out a .deb version via PPA [0]. You should probably also pin to this source so that the snaps don't get installed [1].

I agree, and it's a little depressing to have the same "now I have to go fix that" relationship with two OSes, Ubuntu and macOS (I guess if I used Windows more than occasionally it'd three for three). Since I did all that on 22.04, I am a little nervous that it will get clobbered if I upgrade to 22.10...
