It really doesn't. My girlfriend needed to enable the Japanese keyboard on Kubuntu. That required half an hour of searching documentation and forum posts about how to install/enable FCITX5, then another hour debugging to find out it doesn't work on apps installed via snap.

Heh, you didn't witness the old web UI that used sockets. It was nigh unusable on popular servers.
