    What is the advantage of the snaps over the regular Debian packages?

      They are sandboxed ( limits access to the rest of your system, increasing security ) and run anywhere 🙂 aka any distribution.

        No, they don’t work on any distribution. No support on SteamOS, just to name one major example. Sandboxing also is limited outside Ubuntu.

        You can obviously put your resources wherever you want but please don’t advertise Flatpak’s benefits as Snap’s.

          Hi! I am not praising one over another at all. I will be working on all three major sandbox solutions ( snaps, flatpaks, and appimages ) users can choose whichever one suits them best.
