Re:Ubuntu 20.04 LTS’ snap obsession has snapped me off of it by jula432vdf on Saturday September 05, 2020 @10:54AM (#24383994)
I second this, I couldn't care less about snaps, flatpacks, debs.

But snaps are - for me - A LOT SLOWER than everything else out there.

*.deb, binaries run stuff in less than a second.

Flatpacks, appimage, I have those running in a second or two. Snap, for the same app takes 3-5 sec. sometimes (I wouln't know why), it evens takes as much as 8-10 sec.

NOBODY can get a pass on artificially making slower apps in 2020.
