This is a bug tracker, not a forum for discussions. If you have compelling arguments against chromium being a snap (other than "I don't like it"), feel free to expose them on https://forum.snapcraft.io/. Bug reports for specific issues (actual issues like functional regressions, not opinions) are very welcome, though.

This is wasteful, since all dependencies have to duplicated. It also breaks apt, which no longer controls all the software on my system. I now have to deal with two tools to keep everything up-to-date. Please restrict snap packages to big, complimentary packages, which chromium definitely isn't.
