Leaves behind a bunch of stuff. You have to manually remove each Snap individually, plus the snapshots they take and then hide, and then use Snap to remove itself (it doesn’t let you), then you can apt purge snapd.
There’s several levels of “we know better than you so we’ll just keep this here for when you inevitably change your mind” and it is exhausting.
I don’t even know if the above would also clean up all the dev/loop cruft. It was an unpleasant surprise to discover that apt remove alone didn’t at least disable all the systemd .mount units.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
