SNAP Versus DEB Package Differences
Fullscreen works! and it gets respected as fullscreen aleluya!
Menu does not stutter on menu options, only on Advanced Video
No stutter every 5 to 10 seconds while playing
Still stutters when dying (Very high stuttering and even freezing for a second or two)
No stuttering when starting to shoot
A lot of jitters when dying
Keyboard responsive when dying
Game has NOT been optimized for specific CPUs like a 13th Gen Intel, probably anything above 12th Gen CPUs.

Season 2 brought many changes including menu changes, but it also made playing on Linux crap.
