I have never tried this so proceed with caution, but rather than removing snapd from your system you could attempt removing the execute flag from it with command
Code:
sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/snapd/snapd
As I say I have no idea how well this will work, nor if it might create other problems, but it should stop snapd from automatically upgrading any current snap packages installed and will allow you to add in the execute flag quickly with
Code:
sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/snapd/snapd
if needed to install a snap without the need to reinstall snapd; just make it executable again.
