Oh! Is _that_ why the calculator is nigh unusable now? Sheesh, this just shot snap's credibility right out the window. It's faster for me to boot up the node executable and do my calculations there.

- slavik81 7y agoThe minimal fix for the sluggish calculator on Ubuntu 18.04 to 19.10: sudo snap remove gnome-calculator sudo apt install gnome-calculator The more complete solution is entirely removing snap. I did that long ago, but my process was a little painful. From my logs, it went something like this: snap list snap remove <copy-paste packages from above> sudo service snapd restart # core is tricky to get rid of sudo snap remove core snap list # check it's empty sudo apt install gnome-calculator gnome-characters gnome-logs gnome-system-monitor sudo apt purge snapd squashfs-tools gnome-software-plugin-snap rm -r ~/snap See also: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2409173&p=13826670#post13826670 https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2409173&p=13826670...
