Given snap's many poor design choices, I was delighted to find that $ sudo apt autoremove --purge snapd
had no disadvantages for me, and I recommend it highly to anyone who is able to avoid snap in their ecosystem. In addition to solving this home directory issue, it eliminates some of snap's other intentional clutter, such as bloating `df` and `cat /proc/partitions` with garbage. Regarding unnecessary comments, I'm glad to see people standing up for themselves. Since the devteam's choices don't respect us, I think we have every right to return the favor. It seems to me that after 4 years, continuing to annoy them is one of the few options available to those who can't avoid snap altogether. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575053 Title: Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
