$ snap list
Name    Version    Rev    Tracking       Publisher   Notes
core    16-2.52.1  11993  latest/stable  canonical?  core
core20  20211115   1242   latest/stable  canonical?  base
lxd     4.0.8      21835  4.0/stable/
   canonical?  -

Don't really know what these 3 are...
Only lxd appears when tried with the which command.
Lxd seems to be something used by/for virtual machines, which I do not use on
this server anyway.
