I'm in a similar boat. I've been using Ubuntu on my servers for years but all the crap around snaps and paid sec updates has worn me down. I'm actively in the process of switching it all to Debian.
Snaps seemed like such a time-saver until I tried installing some and they just didn’t work at all, or needed some workarounds and janky weird solutions to even function.
Specifically I’m talking about microk8s. What a god-awful snap, I never got it working and it’s completely broken out of the box. Ugh, I’m eyeballing a move to Debian for my headless servers too.
