3) Thanks to sandboxing, or just plain lack of functionality, we get apps that can't print, for instance. I've got ones that can't, I have to print to PDF, then find something else to print that PDF (which will fail when they eventually appimage the whatever that prints PDF). If you attempt to print from the app, it goes through the motions without error messages but does nothing. Or, it cannot print to/through CUPS, it has to find the printer directly using ZeroConf (hostname.local) instead of using the fully- functional DNS system on the LAN, and will only print that way.
The Firefox snap in Ubuntu doesn't even start in a VNC session. Everyone appears to be ok with fiddling with environment variables, in order to do that. Nobody appears to believe that there's something wrong with this state of affairs. I haven't tried printing, yet, from Firefox, to see how much fun that is.
I think what this is, overall, is watching idiocracy evolve, in realtime.
