In case you're unfamiliar, Linux Mint blocks the installation of snapd (the package that manages Snaps), because Snap is quite controversial in the Linux community (and I explain why in this video). This video shows you how to unblock snapd installation and install snapd. I also show you how to use it on Linux Mint.
Commands to install snapd:
sudo rm /etc/apt/preferences.d/nosnap.pref
sudo apt install snapd
Instant use:
Search for Snap: Instant Search [search query (if there are spaces here, you'll need to put quotes around it. Sorry, forgot to mention that in this video)] (example: Spotify Instant Search)
Install a Snap: sudo snap install [snap name (there should be no spaces here. Sorry, forgot to mention it in this video)] (example: sudo snap install spotify)
Delete a Snap: sudo snap delete [snap name (there should be no spaces here. Sorry, forgot to mention it in this video)] (example: sudo snap remove spotify)
