Is it safe to remove snaps from Zorin OS?

It should not cause any issues for you. I covered this in a Tutorial with links to YouTube guide which has the commands to use beneath it.

Upgrades may reintroduce Snap packages. For me this happened when I removed the Zorin Desktop Environment and replaced it with Plasma (KDE) and Enlightenment DE - but it was Plasma that re-installed snap so I just removed it again. I prefer using Discover and/or Synaptic Package Manager. I have also disabled Wayland as it causes more problems than it solves!
