I just picked my iPhone up off the desk (where I keep it charging when using a computer) pulled down the shortcut screen and opened the pinned calculator app. Was roughly 2 seconds from thought to screen. Windows calculator just took me about that- press Windows button, type 'cal' press return, actual launch basically instantaneous. Mac would be analogous to Windows.

KDE/Plasma does calculations in the launcher - which comes up immediately. Or you could open your console (I use Yakuake) and use bash/python/bc -i/whatever.
- mrkstu 6y agoYou're pointing to instances where snaps aren't involved- kinda missing the point. Just because there are other ways to get the desired result, the optimal path used by most people is seriously impaired for no benefit.
