When I first returned to Linux several years ago I started with Ubuntu, since it was the only distro I had used. I got confused when I installed Firefox and other apps via apt but instead got snap versions. This (very miniscule) gripe is enough of a reason for me to not recommend Ubuntu to new users anymore.
For me it was when I was trying to use some Android tools and it tried to install the snap version. The snap version was broken of course.

Ubuntu is dead on the desktop.
