Why is it snaps are not accessible?

Thank you,

Hi Guy,

I installed Ubuntu 21.10 just for to try and Firefox by snap is inaccessible. But installing Firefox with sudo apt install firefox I got Firefox like we know to be accessible.

Hey everyone, have a question. Is anyone running ubuntu mate 21.10? I’m getting the notice to upgrade, but I am concerned about firefox now being installed as a snap package. Does this hinder accessibility in any way? I thought I heard at one point that snap Applications may be less accessible. If anyone is running this, and has any idea on how it’s working, please let me know. If it is a bad idea, is there anyway to upgrade without Firefox being installed in this manner?

Thanks,

Guy
