Are any of you hosting using Snaps?

Deploying snap apps is really easy, but the catalog is quite small. I use one snap app (Ghostscript) for printing server and it works just fine.

    I don’t know when you tried Nextcloud snap. I was using NC Snap on low tier VPS back in 2021 and 2022. For me it was really good experience, and I saw that a lot of people had the same opinion. Unfortunately, snapcraft lacks a lot of apps and even in that small group there are only a few apps that are supported.

    Snap apps could be good for a lot of ‘just works’ stuff, but the app catalogue is tiny. Hardly any of the app catalogue is kept up to date.

      Way longer, I was running it on serious hardware back in 2016 or so, maybe 2018? It was painfully slow, barely usable and I wasn’t even putting any load on it.

      But it’s made huge strides since, and as I said, if it works for you, go for it.
