Well the complaint is that one-star reviews get deleted.

I read some people expand slack as "Searchable Log of All Conversation and Knowledge"

didn't understand.

> By startup time you might be referring to NixOS

I was referring to application startup which is an issue for snap & flatpak. I'd like to know how it (Nix + sandboxing solution like bubblewrap) compares to flatpak.

I don't understand some details about Nix when people talk about it. Forgive me for being ignorant.

* Do packages need to be 'ported' to Nix or its build / install system? If so, how much effort will it take and on what factors the effort required to port may vary substantially? (eg: Programming Language).

* How is disk space usage? Is there any kind of deduplication?

* How are security updates to shared libraries handled?

* Transactional upgrades look great. But how is the user experience around Transactional upgrades of running GUI applications?

* Other performance characteristics - bandwidth (delta upgrades possible?), startup time (I hope this will be good)..

why is this downvoted? I think OP's question was honest.
