This is the most Canonical thing ever. Quick, use our shitty software that doesn't work correctly and locks you into our proprietary platform!!! 
People who defend snaps kind of baffle me. It's somewhat nice for Ubuntu server applications, but that's about it. The fact that snapd is hard coded to direct to Canonical's proprietary storefront and doesn't support third-party repos should be a complete nonstarter for the format, never mind all the performance issues. This is Linux, why is it okay to have an Apple-style walled garden as your package format of choice? I really don't get it.
