Whenever I try to do almost anything involving snap on the Windows 10 session of Ubuntu, I get this:

> sudo snap install htop

error: cannot communicate with server: Post http://localhost/v2/snaps: dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connect: no such file or directory

snaps use snapd which requires systemd which is not available under WSL.
