I’m also getting ridiculously slow speeds over both WiFi and Ethernet (I have 100mbps fibre to my ISP). I’m seeing around 150kb/sec, sometimes dropping as low as 70kb/sec.

That second one was much faster.
60+ minutes to install a single application like CLion is just crazy. I have three more apps like that to install - that’s 4+ hours of my time sitting around waiting.
EDIT: CLion snap has been downloading for 30+ minutes now and has an ETA of another 92 minutes…
EDIT2: Never mind, I ditched snap and used Jetbrains Toolbox to install my tools - took a total of about 4 minutes to download and install all 4 IDEs. If snap downloads remain several orders of magnitude slower than direct download how does anyone expect it to become a standard package format?
