I have installed Firefox in my machine and the difference is around 3 seconds.
For me, how my system feels is pretty important. If something isn’t snappy, my stress levels start to rise. So those 3 seconds do make a difference. Some people might not care at all, which is understandable.
If you don’t care, use it, enjoy it. You’re free to pick what matches your priorities and preferences.
I would care if it took 3s to start, after all I moved all my storage to NVMe for a reason. So I totally get why you would be annoyed with snaps, it’s just that in my experience there’s simply no noticeable startup time in 23.04, firefox opens in under a second.
So they either fixed that in LL or you can outmuscle it with hardware, and I’m genuinely just curios which one it is.
