    How to retain Snaps across btrfs snapshot restore(s)?

    Hello.

    I generally don't like Snaps (I prefer Flatpaks & AppImages for self-contained app management), but if I want to use certain apps, they are unavoidable. I have already created a subvolume /var/lib/flatpak/ to exclude Flatpaks from btrfs snapshots. Now I'm trying to do the same for Snaps, but it seems more complicated (if not impossible?).
    Online I have found only this "guide": https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/create-...ications/15198, but it doesn't seem a wholesome solution. Also this guide about Snap internals: https://hackernoon.com/managing-ubun...u-625dfbe4b26c, didn't add much to this issue. Did anyone have Snaps properly separated in subvolume(s) and wants to share his know-how?
