[Bug 1971037] Re: [snap] Firefox starts very slow
I'm closing this bug again, not because it's not a valid issue, but because it's being tracked and addressed elsewhere. See details on the ongoing work (which spans multiple teams and projects) at https://ubuntu.com/blog/how-are-we-improving-firefox-snap-performance- part-1 and https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/known-issues-with-firefox- snap/24663. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971037 Title: [snap] Firefox starts very slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1971037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1971037] Re: [snap] Firefox starts very slow
Yes. But I'm mostly pissed that Canonical knowingly introduces this regression, without some kind of opt-in. And then incrementally starts fixing it. While technically we all know if will always be slower then it was and take up more disk space. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971037 Title: [snap] Firefox starts very slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1971037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and help make Ubuntu better. Firefox is provided by a snap published by Mozilla, and they may not be aware of this issue. Please contact them via https://support.mozilla.org/kb/file-bug-report-or-feature-request- mozilla and link the bug report here so it can be further tracked. Bugs are not about filing complaints but about helping others with similar problems. To maintain a respectful atmosphere, please follow the code of conduct - http://www.ubuntu.com/project/about-ubuntu/conduct. Bug reports are handled by humans, the majority of whom are volunteers, so please bear this in mind. Furthermore, Canonical did not choose to distribute Firefox as a snap, it was Mozilla's decision as part of their distribution agreement with Canonical. Mozilla gets to tell distributions how they want their software distributed as part of their license.

[Bug 1971037] Re: [snap] Firefox starts very slow
That really is non-sense. Firefox is open source. Canonical can choose how to build/distribute it. And as a user I can choose to change that. And I just did, I followed these instructions https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2022/04/how-to-install- firefox-deb-apt-ubuntu-22-04 Now I changed back to a deb based version built by Canonical staff and distributed through Canonical infrastructure. And Firefox starts in 5sec instead of 15sec. This bug report was intended to register that performance significantly regressed. What you are stating is that that is a deliberate choice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971037 Title: [snap] Firefox starts very slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/1971037/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
