    <p>The list is pretty small to be honest and all of it very normal.
      Also, nearly everything there is an old library and/or kernel. The
      few packages there that are not libraries or kernels are just apps
      that were likely replaced by newer ones and/or snaps since you
      choose to run Ubuntu, where that's now default for some time. Some
      could be due to conflicts, but none are important nor unable to be
      re-installed later. In short, everything looks standard and normal
      here and what you typically see on an upgrade process. </p>
    <p>If you want to remove snap and stop it from ever being installed
      again, something like this tutorial here will help:
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.baeldung.com/linux/snap-remove-disable">https://www.baeldung.com/linux/snap-remove-disable</a> Also, apt is
      now integrated with snap on Ubuntu for some packages, so you will
      need to install those by other means such as but not exclusive to
      ppas for chromium like this
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://askubuntu.com/questions/1204571/how-to-install-chromium-without-snap">https://askubuntu.com/questions/1204571/how-to-install-chromium-without-snap</a>
      ... other apps are impacted by the snap integration too; you
      should do some research. Just because you use "apt" on Ubuntu does
      not - any longer - mean you are not using snap; they are
      interwoven now by design and for quite a while now. See
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://askubuntu.com/questions/1410688/how-to-prevent-apt-from-automatically-installing-snaps">https://askubuntu.com/questions/1410688/how-to-prevent-apt-from-automatically-installing-snaps</a>
      for more information. Firefox and Chromium, for example, will
      default to snap when using apt.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Good luck dude. Never a better time to switch to Debian. Also,
      you might run sudo apt dist-upgrade to resolve dependencies next
      time.<br>
