** Description changed: Currently, ubuntu recommends installing snap by default, and some apps are slowly transitioning from DEB-based installation to Snap-based installation. APT is great, and facilitates having a clean, maintainable system. - The snap project is not very well designed or engineered (just changing the location of where snap data is located is taking the project more than 5 years because it was hardcoded: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053). Snaps are large and VERY slow. The design of snap, as well as the way decisions are made, are very questionable, and are receiving - increasing amounts of criticism. + The snap project is not very well designed or engineered (just changing + the location of where snap data is located is taking the project more + than 5 years because it was hardcoded: + https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053).

I'd like to request that Ubuntu stops recommending snap, stops transitioning towards snaps, and we come back to defaulting to DEB/APT- based installation for all apps.
