I downloaded a plugin and put it in /usr/share/obs/obs-plugins but I don't see anyway to load the plugin in the interface.

I'm guessing snap screws all the default paths up and I need to put it in $HOME/snap/obs/?????

hi guys, if you have installed obs studio in a linux distro using snap, this is the plugins folder:
~/snap/obs-studio/current/.config/obs-studio/plugins/

If not, you can easy find the folder plugins using this command:
sudo find /home /snap -type d -name obs-studio

I was able to install the most updated version of the plugin advanced scene switcher in OBS studio from snap but I ended with two instances of the plugin, the one that came pre-installed (old version) and the one that I downloaded from the forum (the newest) ¿How can I remove pre-installed plugins? Note I am relatively new to Linux, I have read a lot in the last couple of months and after testing several distros in virtual machine I decided to install Linux mint with dual boot along with windows,
