Huge files (made worse by an insistence on keeping two versions of everything around). Slow to start even a simple calculator. Fills the mount list with spam. All to deliver the "feature" that Discord can't share a file from ~/.minecraft/screenshots/whatever.png and ffmpeg can't access /dev/video0
Users prefer dpkg so clearly that Canonical had to make a fake dpkg file for Chromium that installs it using snap.
From a user perspective : it does work. I always had issues running Spotify on it if I ran a newer Ubuntu than Spotify built their application for. Now I run the snap and everything just works.
- When there is new security fix, like new version of Node.js, I release new version of Wekan https://wekan.github.io and all those about 9000 servers worldwide are updated automatically soon and safe from that vulnerability. Wekan migrations upgrade database schema etc automatically.
- When Snap is upgraded, it upgrades very fast, compared to Docker
- Snap does not have layers taking big amount of disk space, like Docker
- Snap sandbox works very well. Snaps with strict confinement (like Wekan) can not access files outside of /var/snap/wekan/common directory.
