Were you previously running the distro supplied Spotify or from Spotify's own APT repo?
- When there is new security fix, like new version of Node.js, I release new version of Wekan https://wekan.github.io and all those about 9000 servers worldwide are updated automatically soon and safe from that vulnerability. Wekan migrations upgrade database schema etc automatically.
- When Snap is upgraded, it upgrades very fast, compared to Docker
- Snap does not have layers taking big amount of disk space, like Docker
- Snap sandbox works very well. Snaps with strict confinement (like Wekan) can not access files outside of /var/snap/wekan/common directory.
- Snaps are the reason to select Snap compatible distro https://snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snapd .
Is there any other automatic update system like Snap? AFAIK other update systems require manual steps to update.
Huge files (made worse by an insistence on keeping two versions of everything around). Slow to start even a simple calculator. Fills the mount list with spam. All to deliver the "feature" that Discord can't share a file from ~/.minecraft/screenshots/whatever.png and ffmpeg can't access /dev/video0
Users prefer dpkg so clearly that Canonical had to make a fake dpkg file for Chromium that installs it using snap.
