Uninstall Snap on Fedora

Info-tech

I installed Snapd to install Slack on it in the past.[1]

However, I knew an alternative Flatpak and compared the Flatpack with Snap.[3][4] I thought it would be better to uninstall Snap and install Flatpak.

Uninstall Snap

I referred to the [5] to uninstall Snap.

$ df -h | grep loop

$ sudo dnf remove snapd

$ df -h | grep loop

That's it!

Install Flatpak

I referred to the [6]. It was already installed.

$ sudo dnf install flatpak
...
Package flatpak-1.12.7-5.fc36.x86_64 is already installed.
Dependencies resolved.
Nothing to do.
Complete!
