    Yes. I literally have a cron job to unmount and rename my root directory to / that runs every 12 hours.

      And how does that work? How do you unmount the root directory of a live system and invoke a script?

        sudo umount /var/snap/Firefox/common/host-hunspell 2>/dev/null
        
        Sudo snap disconnect Firefox:host-hunspell 2>/dev/null
        
        

        Like that?

        It’s not unmounting my root directory it’s unmounting what Firefox mounted on my root directory.

      That makes no sense. The bug listed shows the same device mounted to / and that spelling for in /var or whatever. And your system wouldn’t operate if / didn’t exist. I’m almost curious enough to go set up a VM to try to see what’s happening.

        My working solution is literally running a Cron .sh which is

        sudo umount /var/snap/Firefox/common/host-hunspell 2>/dev/null
        
        Sudo snap disconnect Firefox:host-hunspell 2>/dev/null
        
        

        If Firefox updates via snap, it will change back to bullshit. Is the case in every 22.04 VM I have on my machine as well. This script effectively gives me “/” back, and unfucks the rest of my machine.

        It is a reason for me looking to leave Ubuntu after 12 years dedicated. Just because it makes no sense doesn’t mean it isn’t happening.
