My snapd free 23.04

Hi, first i downloaded the snap- infected version from ubuntu.mate.org with torrent.
Then i did unsquashfs the filesystem.squashfs.
After chrroting inside it i did
sudo apt autoremove --purge snapd
and
sudo rm -rf /var/cache/snapd/

then i did add tghe firefox -prefences.d no snap file and added the mint no snapd apt patched file.
After that i did apt-get update , closed the sqaushfs an did regenerate the filesystem.size file.
Last but npt least used isomaster to add the modded file. The iso size shrunk dramatically abou 1 GB.

after applying some themes:

Note that cups and pulseaudio need still to be recompiled to prevent snap from entering the system.
Its blazingly fast and runs well even with themes from ubutnu 22.04.

It's curious... what themes are you using?
