The idea of Snap is good, but the implementation is bad and slow. I prefer to use distro's package manager or flatpack.

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.

I like podman and flatpak
I understand that people feel strongly about Snaps, but I don't know about saying that they're a security vulnerability on the basis of offering automatic updates.
@possiblylinux127 ELI5 how isn't this an attack vector
Bad update
