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 ! πŸ˜… 😍 πŸ‘‘

The New app store is beautiful πŸ™Œ

(just sharing my experience πŸ˜… )

I kind of dislike the 50 bazillion mounted block devices. I'm an old gray beard at this point and I like my CLI. That's really my only complaint about it. It just seems unnatural to me. Otherwise they're fine mostly.

I've seen very similar use of loop devices in an automotive app management implementation. Each app has its own filesystem image that gets mounted on a loop device on installation, then runs from it. It's annoying on the command line but it's not a bad use case of the facility. ☺️

@SaintNewts As a beginner i don't know much about mounting points, anyway i hope it will be fixed in the future πŸ™ƒ
