This is a off-topic, but many people find snaps to be a source of 
problems - both technical (speed issues, mount list messes, application 
interaction issues) and non-technical (such as it being basically a 
proprietary tie-in to Canonical with limited freedom or user control). 
However, I don't know if flatpack (the obvious alternative) Thunderbird 
has the same problem here as snap Thunderbird, since Thunderbird is a 
normal deb on my system (Mint).  It must also surely be possible to find 
a PPA with Thunderbird debs for Ubuntu.
