Upgraded Ubuntu to 22.04, where Firefox is Snap by default. Wasn’t going to fight it, especially since Canonical has made 3 blog posts talking about how much faster they made Firefox on Snap.
Since then, I’ve had subtle but annoying issues.
- Can’t Google things that have a colon after the first word- i.e.
error: file not found
doesn’t work - I get notifications for pending updates
- Other apps like Gnome’s Software take a minute+ to load on my beefy computer
This isn’t even a meme. Snap is trash. I wanted to be neutral and not join the “hate train” but seriously. Snap is that bad.
I use just one Snap, rest are native, and a dozen or so Flatpaks and about a dozen Appimages.
