I currently run a small research cluster, and snaps are great. They make spinning up for instance a new redis instance super quick and painless. I think that snaps are mostly a server use, and the desktop users don't like it because they're not server admins and have different needs.

It looks like that flatpaks have mostly won the desktop market, but on the server side docker and snaps are both really nice.
