Getting linux mint 21 setup and ready to go. Trying to get into the snapstore ecosystem. So I went through the steps to installed snapd…it hasn’t popped up anywhere. desktop, start menu, etc etc. can’t find it with a search. It appears functional though, installed geforce experience…didn’t pop up etc etc etc. installed moonlight, same thing. So you can see where I’m at for the most part. Can you all lend me a hand and figure out what I need to be doing to get things straightened out? Thanks ahead of time, it is very appreciated. -shawn
Is snapd successfully installed on your Mint 21 install?
What’s the output of dpkg -L snapd and dpkg-query -W snapd?

to your first question, I honestly do not know
