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,
H.
