It seems most people agree that the snap is a good idea, but not well implemented. I for one use snap packages when they are available for better security, because, if there is a vulnerability, say in Firefox, the malware will be jailed in its container. That’s one more layer. Sandboxing is desperately needed in desktop operating systems.
Another advantage that is portability. Snap export nextcloud and import somewhere else!
Sure, snaps are slower, and take some space, but with todays CPUs and storage, that’s not a dealbreaker. BTW, if you don’t like snap, you just remove it. What else would be the problem?
Check out also Pop!_OS based upon Ubuntu. Ubuntu itself has excellent hardware support.
