The configuration setting is in the config.php file. On ubuntu with a snap based package, this is: /var/snap/nextcloud/current/nextcloud/config/config.php
By default on Ubuntu the data directory is: /var/snap/nextcloud/common/nextcloud/data/ > Any other things I need to consider in getting it setup correctly?

It can be added later, or at least you used to be able to. This is handy for tying to Active Directory or IDM/FreeIPA to keep your user data in one place if you want to share multiple machines and or application with a common user directory. Not really a requirement for a personal setup (it does add to the maintenance overhead because you have to also maintain the LDAP directory). If nextcloud is your only app then LDAP only adds overhead for no real gain. Hth,
