I wouldn't worry about it too hard, there isn't anything fundamentally wrong with Ubuntu. Both it and mint are in the same family after all.
Sounds like you should just keep Ubuntu and get the non-snap versions of the apps that need codecs.
Yeah, I removed Snap mpv and reinstalled with apt.
Lo and behold, it works perfectly all of a sudden.
Firefox looks like more effort, and apt will install the snap version. Even if you uninstall snap. Fun. If I could enable what is missing I'd be OK, but I've no idea what it is...
