Firefox Snap package still does not work properly. It crashes every time on upgrade which cause data loss, it disappear from the panel but still running on unknown workspace...
All this is very annoying to the average user and gives a negative impression of using Ubuntu. I think Firefox Snap is not ready for using in LTS release by default. The same situation with Chromium Snap package, I had to switch to Google Chrome .deb package because I tired from Chromium Snap problems. P.S. All Snap packages which I tried to use have the same issues, I'm tired of riding on square wheels when everyone is riding on round ones. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1962021 Title: Make the deb package install the firefox snap Status in firefox package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Canonical and Mozilla are working together to make the firefox snap the only supported package in Ubuntu, thus deprecating the deb package in the archive. This bug tracks the transformation of the firefox package in the archive into a transitional package that installs the snap, much like was done for chromium-browser in Ubuntu 19.10. There are a number of known problems and regressions with the snap compared to the deb (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=snap and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bugs?field.tag=snap), those are actively being worked on and will be addressed in due time, please refrain from using this bug to point them out. Instead, file separate bugs in the upstream bug tracker (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi), making sure to specify this is about the snap package.
