I've install .NET Core on my Ubuntu 18.04 using sudo snap install dotnet-sdk --classic, but after the install process complete, the dotnet command still not working. Here is my console log: 

long@long-ub1804:~$ sudo snap install dotnet-sdk
[sudo] password for long: 
error: This revision of snap "dotnet-sdk" was published using classic
       confinement and thus may perform arbitrary system changes outside of the
       security sandbox that snaps are usually confined to, which may put your
       system at risk.

       If you understand and want to proceed repeat the command including
       --classic.
long@long-ub1804:~$ sudo snap install dotnet-sdk --classic
dotnet-sdk 2.2.202 from Microsoft .NET Core (dotnetcore✓) installed
long@long-ub1804:~$ dotnet --version

Command 'dotnet' not found, but can be installed with:

sudo snap install dotnet-sdk

long@long-ub1804:~$ snap list

    Run the app as dotnet-sdk.dotnet from the command line.

You should try the following command

sudo snap alias dotnet-sdk.dotnet dotnet

Since snap doesn't provide automatic aliases for dotnet-sdk.

    Package managers come and go, some stick for long, some not so much. Their consistency, however, in eventually failing in the most basic tasks is remarkable. Thanks for the tip.

    I have heard mention that there will still be issues with visual studio code without a bit of additional configuration?

    Don't use snap to install dotnet. It only half works and vs code won't work. Also getting rid of it is a pain

    And also don't use Ubuntu Software Updater to update dotnet, because it'll use snap, and you'll get to waste a day like I just did
