Nope. For a family member you just install ubuntu. Maybe if you feel strongly about it, you uninstall snap firefox and install apt firefox, but otherwise you just leave it alone.

it’ll run forever, auto update, etc. completely hands off and stress free.

Doesn’t apt install the snap package on Ubuntu when it’s available anyway? I’d say Mint is probably easier then. Ubuntu has gone a bit off the rails in recent years.
