Well, even though I would argue that it still was an amped feat (nothing "implies" that Anakin's Mortis feat was amped, either), my point still stands, that Yoda has so far done nothing as powerful as Snoke's bond feat.

Sidious:- Throws Senate pods around like baseballs which must be around a ton each
- His Lightning has been shown to kill (Mace) and maim (Luke)
- He killed 3 out of 4 Jedi Council members sent to arrest him within seconds with his lightsaber; fast enough to get the drop on them easily
- He effortlessly destroyed the Maul bros in saber combat
These show Sidious' powers are tremendous, but really no mention of power which doesn't outstrip the force bond feat is worth mentioning.
- stalemated Yoda who was the greatest warrior in the Jedi Order at that time; Yoda own feats from the PT and TCW back up his battle prowess
But Yoda's never shown an ability stronger than Snoke's force bond either, so even that's not worth all that much.
- despite being uber powerful with the Force he managed to conceal himself from the Jedi for decades while interacting with them on a daily basis
In canon, it was more due to the clone wars clouding the jedi's powers rather than Palpatine directly himself.
- was also telepathic, able to enter Anakins mind before his turn in order to influence his decision
That's not really that impressive, especially compared to Snoke calling Sidious to the unknown regions and knowing the events of the destruction of Death Star II when he wasn't even there.
- was able to Force choke Dooku, another powerful Force user from lightyears away through a hologram
Dooku wouldn't have resisted in that moment. He was being chastised by his master. It's an impressive feat, yes, but it's not even as powerful as Snoke chastising Hux.
Snoke:
- managed to connect Kylo and Reys minds; a pretty decent feat but one with no battle applications
But it is a good display of his power. You interpret the feat as being "decent", but it's implied to be part of the lost knowledge from the unknown regions. The only moments we've seen it done other than Snoke and Luke is through a ritual connecting Dooku and Yoda and an ancient sith holocron connecting Maul and Ezra.
This feat shows the kind of stuff he knows about the force, something hidden from the Jedi and Sith for centuries, if not millenia. And it could imply combative application, as we see he can teleport matter and people through it.
- slapped Hux around, a normal human around from what is presumed to be lightyears away with the Force- is able to extract info from minds even with raw power such as Reys
What's even more impressive is he asked Kylo in TFA to bring Rey to him, implying that he could do to Rey what he did in TLJ even from lightyears away.
- is able to read minds..poorly it would seem as he was blindsided by his apprentices true intentions
That was a display of his overconfidence, not his weakness. He could read minds well, he just was fooled by Kylo's intentions, when Kylo felt that he wanted to "turn his lightsaber and kill his true enemy."
Snoke just doesnt have the feats to go up against Sidious in a one one one battle; its painfully clear that while he may have had the POTENTIAL going by his scarce onscreen feats now that hes dead hes severely limited in showings that can go up against Palpatines.
Snoke loses badly when you compare their feats
Mostly because we've never been shown his upper limit. We saw Sidious stalemating Talzin and Yoda, and not being able to understand what was calling to him from the unknown regions. And I'd still argue his Force bond feat is more impressive.
