No. When we have flatpak and appimage, snap makes zero sense. I just see it as a way to implement a centralized walled garden into the OS, and don't install Ubuntu systems even in VMs for five minute test drives.
The way Canonical rolled it out is flat out insulting to the free software community and distro culture, IMHO.
It's too late here to write about its technical problems, so I'll leave it at that.
