I actually like snap.

At the end of the day users like me matter.

I cannot find 1 decent pomodrone app for linux. I now have 2 of those from snap store.

I could not get that mycroft ai app to run for some reason. One in snap actually works.

Ya the startup time is noticeable but they work.

For intermediate like me and noob users its awesome.

Edit: also purple task is good to do list maker. So at the end of the day what ever attracts developer to make cool little app is a win for me.
