Which version of Ubuntu is this? Please [edit](https://askubuntu.com/posts/1390089/edit) the question to add that information.

Snap store is just ridiculous! You should use a good application like gnome software. It's fairly good and doesn't have any issues. N.B: Snap store is a modified version of Gnome Software

@Someone OP may not know the difference between the two, or how to install gnome software. Please write it into an answer.

This is a well-known issue. If you refer to the Launchpad Page of Ubuntu Software, you'll see a handful of bug reports regarding the same with no answers from the developers. As a result, in Jammy 22.04, they've chosen to use Gnome software instead. Gnome software is working fine without any issues. You can install gnome-software using:

$ sudo apt update 
$ sudo apt install gnome-software

If you want to remove the Ubuntu software app:

$ sudo snap remove snap-store

Gnome software is way better than the default application centre. The user interface is nearly the same.

Note: Ubuntu Snap Store is a re-designed version of Gnome-Software but unfortunately with bugs.


You can launch gnome software using:

 $ gnome-software 

You can also launch it using the application overview.

Here is how it looks like:

Here is the UI of Gnome Software in Ubuntu 21.10:

You can install additional plugins for it too. For example, you can run the following command to enable the snap plugin in Gnome Software:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-snap

If you want to enable flatpak support then you can run:

$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-flatpak

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
