The best part of Linux’s single universal packaging system is there’s three of them.
- logicprog 2y agoSure, but all of them are actually universal, so it doesn't matter which one you choose, unlike their being multiple regular package formats.
- doublepg23 2y agoIt seems to me the most neutral one is AppImage. Flatpak being the favorite of “not-Ubuntu” people and Snap being only preferred by Ubuntu…but still having a huge user base due to their enormous market share.
- tjoff 2y agoPeople don't prefer snap, they are forced into it.
- doublepg23 2y agoFunny enough I have a friend at Microsoft who likes it as a secure, lightweight alternative to Docker.
