NGL sometimes you can only find the software you want as a snap, it sucks, but it's the price you pay for not using Windows or Mac. At the end of the day, it's Windows 11, OSX or Ubuntu for most folks outside of Lemmy. I really want to swap to Mint w Debian, but they don't have support for MATE out of the box. Maybe in a year or two. Hoping 24.04 LTS works well.
Debian has had MATE since forever. It's as simple as typing
Honestly you don't even need Ubuntu if you absolutely need snaps. You can install snapd on a lot of apt distros, or you can spin an Ubuntu container in Distrobox in a few seconds.
Im a total noob, just started using Linux, dual booting with mint and I've already learned to use snap
