I get why snap is needed, but, like others, my experience has been poor. The first issue was Ubuntu 22.04 shipping the firefox snap only. It's ok for small occasional use programs that you need the bleeding edge version on. But it's not ok to wait 30+ seconds for firefox to open.<p>They fixed that. But I hit into it's idea of security - being unable to open html files on my local drive, unable to load links from my mutt client, and unable to download and save directly into a specific folder.<p>And worse, the snap updates just don't function well. They remind you when you are using the program, and they don't seem to update when you're not using it.<p>Real shame, but these are fixable problems.
