    I would love to love snaps, it seems so easy, but for some reason it always is super buggy once stuff is installed. I installed and removed docker via snap like 5 times in a one month period before just using apt and haven’t had an issue in months.

    It was weird because I set a static ip for my server on my local network via my ASUS router (e.g. used the admin console to set the locks up to 10.0.0.5 instead of the 10.0.0.49 it was). After a couple days docker would freak out and refused to work because it kept looking for stuff on 10.0.0.49. I would have to reset some config files then it would work again. Finally gave up and used apt and haven’t had an issue since

    wtf?! docker is installed from snap now? does that mean your docker container is actually running inside a snap container?

    Sometimes apps installed through snaps have borked UI.

    Or strange, non-standard settings / configuration. It's weird. Sometimes it's fine, other times it's like they have some preconfigured package that works with snap.
