I’ve got a similar problem as described in this thread, but didn’t have the same issue with the ‘state.json’ file which was not corrupted (I tried removing it but it just recreated as soon as a snap command was run - can open it with sudo and have put slightly redacted contents below) and am now at a loss. Hoping someone here can spot what the problem might be!
I’m running Solus 4.0 with snap version 2.39.3-48 installed from Solus’ software center.
Output from: snap version
