Ren’s obsession with Vader
“The Force Awakens” makes a big show of having Kylo Ren essentially pray to Darth Vader at one point as he struggles to remain evil. “I will finish, what you started,” he says ominously, demonstrating that a big part of his whole arc is his devotion whatever he thought Darth Vader represented. But that devotion is nowhere to be seen In “The Last Jedi,” with Darth Vader only being mentioned once, by Snoke. The big moment early one where Ren destroys the helmet he wore through most of “The Force Awakens” likely represents a decision on Ren’s part to make his own way rather than follow in his grandfather’s footsteps.

Yeah...it's this thing called character development.
I agree about Snoke. Knights of Ren were referenced by Luke. Considering Luke wanted the Jedi to end, it's conceivable that he was there guarding those Jedi texts whilst he died. Other things are whatever (3PO's arm changed colors? a middle finger, alright)
