But what about ubuntu servers, where snaps actually make sense?

It's literally the only place it makes sense. Everywhere else, flat packs, or app images are just better. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

That sounds even worse. snapd will just randomly "upgrade" and break shit. That's a headache on a desktop, but a total disaster on a server.
