You will all hate me but... Snaps! First time I could easily roll back a bad version of thunderbird (I use it for work -office 365) which got stuck in a oauth2 login loop. I had to roll back twice (again, single command, everything just worked) then finally an upgrade where the bug was fixed.

Don't get me wrong I've pinned versions before with apt etc, but I always end up forgetting and having to remove them afterwards.

And... The only reason I was using the thunderbird snap was cause the regular apt thunderbird had some other annoying bug.

Yep.... Snaps... (Shake my head and walk away)
