I note this seems to be an issue only on Ubuntu desktop, not server.

Anyhow, given that on my one Ubuntu desktop, all of the snap lines in df
output start with '/dev/loop', that isn't real helpful.  Perhaps instead
use:

alias dft="df -Th|grep -v '^/dev/loop'"

or, more precisely (in case you have some /dev/loop*'s that aren't snaps):

alias dft="df -Th|grep -v '^/dev/loop.*/snap/'"
