VLC 3.0.16, for viewing media and listening to music. Featherpad 1.0.1, for notes and code editing. Discover Software Center 5.24.4, for an easy, graphical way to install and update software. You can find a variety of other applications installed which aim to enhance your experience while staying out of the way of your normal workflow. Please note: The change of firefox to snap package, results in the browser being slower to start. It does not impact execution or subsequent runs during that session. The reason for this is the setting up of the confined environment in which snaps run, and decompress the squashfs, with privacy and security benefits. This is very noticeable on first run especially with live media.
