   Since some time I use the Kalendar (ubuntu 18.4), which I find quite   
   useful. In "ubuntu software" you find it listed with 312.8 MB, which   
   seems rather much for such an application. Well, I thought, this is   
   because of the snaps.   
      
   Now I have a second PC with Mint 20.3. I looked for a calendar   
   and found "Calendar (for gnome)", 1.1 GB to download, 3.6 GB disk   
   space required.   
      
   How come that two nearly similar Programs differ so much in volume?   
      
   Regards,
