Not able to because my main machine is Mint now. But, even on the Ubuntu box, running the deb version is not (generally) possible any more? Also, I see no reason a compilation flags could be used inside a snap but not out of it, other than a policy choice. Finally, what about every other program that uses snaps? This doesn't solve any of the other poor design issues. Like I said, I used Windows for years and ad-hoc is how software is installed there. But even on Windows, installing a program doesn't involve bullshit like spamming Explorer with disk images.
