The most annoying thing for me was the huge internet data usage by snap updates but it is better now.
Even though it showed 300mb for a Firefox update, but only consumed 80mb and everything updated and working wonderfully ! ๐ ๐ ๐
The New app store is beautiful ๐
(just sharing my experience ๐ )
It's more of a double edged sword: snaps were great imho when they replaced the mess of old we had going on with thirty or so incompatible ppas.
But why force snaps for central stuff like FF/Chromium and soon Thunderbird?
I just upgraded an old PC and reinstalling Ubuntu meant that all my configs of these apps and then some broke. Snap is using incompatible storage for dotfiles and configurations. And more often than not central Desktop functions like the cursors (atm no hand cursor in FF for me!), sound and common extensions don't work ootb. For the odd piece of speciality sw I'd had to go hunting for before that's alright. But not for everyday stuff
Come on canonical, don't enshittify you great distribution...
@jfx Yes..You're right..
