    Wait hold on wait, does that bullshit have something with Firefox being distributed through Snap?

    If it does, I’m going to sn… also fucking lose it

      I have bad news for you …

      (TBH I am not sure, but as I remember, this problem was specifically a snap problem.)

      Yeah, it’s snap

      Always updating without letting you know, without asking and it’s ALWAYS at the most inconvenient time

          It basically IS the cause as it’s the system doing the updates without asking. But snap has other issues too. For one, it’s the slowest installer in recorded human history, it takes literally ten times longer on snap to install anything. Why? Beats me, in theory it ought to be faster as it shouldn’t have to resolve dependencies but here we are. Try installing anything with snap, it takes forever.

          Then, snap is closed source eon the server side, so fuck all of that, that’s already 200% of reasons not to use it ever. I don’t trust closed source software anymore
