I started using ubuntu 2 years ago and its great. Just disable snaps. It's like 5 commands (and you have to reinstall Firefox).

You stop snap store from running, disable it from restarting then set apt over snap store as default.

It's not hard. I did it day 1 of using Linux. Plus there's guides a plenty on how to do it.

At that point just use PopOS. Why the hell would you use Ubuntu just to disable snaps?

Because snaps aren't the only feature the distro comes with. It's widely versatile, commonly used, and this argument isn't a good one. PopOS is good, so is ubuntu minus the snaps.
