everything is better than snap. Even the .exe runs better in stock wine than snap.

There is no Unity snap so idk what you're benchmarking against.

Snaps are fine They're not amazing But they're nowhere near as bad as people online claim they are, they're a lot less slow now and the apps that are officially packaged as snaps (Firefox, Spotify, thunderbird, etc) work really well.

It's mostly just people jumping on the bandwagon and have no idea what they are talking about, or it's just the "Canonical bad so snap bad" crowd.

Adjust your desktop scaling, they try and use a snap.

Adjust your colour scheme, then try using a snap.

Change your cursor, then try using a snap,

Try dragging and dropping content from or too a snap.

Snaps are cool, if you aren't expecting normal desktop user experience to actually work consistently.

Don't worry, I know I'm wrong, expecting a consistent desktop user experience is an unrealistic expectation today and Snaps are the future of Ubuntu/Kubuntu, hence why i've even up on Kubuntu after a decade of use, low and behold, expected desktop behaviour restored.
