From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The Firefox snap opens instantly for me. I don't think you've used snaps for a while.
Maybe they fixed that part, but that isn't a good thing. Now you can't feel whether something is installed as snap and will probably run into snap issues without a clue what could be causing them.
Do it's a problem if they don't perform well and it's a problem if they do lol
Oh, come on. You're saying that it's a problem that snaps don't have immediately obvious performance problems or bugs?
Let's not get silly about these things...
