Disadvantages ------------- A desktop flavor of Ubuntu practically needs to install a web browser. The only browsers supported by the Ubuntu Security Team are Firefox and Chromium, both distributed only as Snaps in Ubuntu.
Also, an increasing number of Ubuntu apps are built with Flutter and Flutter apps are only distributed as Snaps. This includes the upcoming Ubuntu Security Center app. The Ubuntu desktop installer is one of those Flutter apps. etc. Anyway, the Ubuntu Desktop team has no plan to build a version of Ubuntu Desktop without snaps so I'm closing this bug since it will not be fixed in "ubuntu-meta". I don't think this proposal is practical because of the browser issue, but if it were to be done, I am guessing it would be a community flavor.
