Error: cannot install "certbot": classic confinement requires snaps under /snap

Note: I don't have any experience with snap at all..

In the certbot instructions it said:

sudo snap install core; sudo snap refresh core

I assume you did that? Can you confirm that?

Also, I found the following:

https://snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snap-on-fedora

It says:

To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap :

$ sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap

Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.

Could you try that and afterwards try to install certbot again?
