Submitted file on 16th March. I am not even able to link my application to cic account.

Do they process online application faster than paper based application?

I have seen many applicants who have submitted paper based application and received decision after 2-3 months while online application receive decision in 5 week or so (It's just my observation as one of my friend submitted his application online in first week of Feb, he received positive decision till last week of Feb and he's now in Canada).
All immigration applications are likely to take a lot longer due to the COVID situation so what happened previously is not relevant at the moment, you will just have to be patient . Also even in a normal situation cannot compare how long someone elses application took to process given every application is unique.

As for online versus paper sure IRCC prefer online so you could assume an online application generally get ahead of a paper purely by fact is online. but not necessarily because gets higher priority if received same day. If you check any processing times online generally have a lower average process time than paper, although quoted times at the moment are meaningless due to COVID
