We’re actually just in the middle of our move off Snap. Do subscribe to the mailing list and I can send an update once that’s out.
Given how vocal anti-snap people are, I just wanted to provide a voice in favour of snap. It's always my preferred method of install for anything not in the default archives.
You should keep snap and offer other options if you want, the noise you hear is not a majority, snap works very well for many people and they don't have posts that reach top of HN.
