Snap actually has a lot of benefits. Developers get a streamed way of publishing Linux apps. Users get an easier access to apps, and the benefit of sandboxing.

Snap actually has a lot of benefits. Developers get a streamed way of publishing Linux apps. Users get an easier access to apps, and the benefit of sandboxing. Case: at work recently I needed to use Microsoft Teams for a business meeting. With snap, I only needed to do `snap install teams`, and voila, I could start a web meeting with my customer. Without snap, I would have to install Teams from Microsoft's apt repo. I think this is pretty inferior to snap, because 1) It's harder to manage, 2) implicitly grants a root access on my machine to Microsoft, and 3) can break my system with package conflicts.
