I used snap for the first time today, while setting up a demo nextcloud server. All dependencies in one bundle, it was incredibly simple. Has anyone else used it, is there a catch? (aside from the wasted disk space from not sharing dependencies) Pros/cons?

@neil the catch is to keep all your buckets up-to-date when there is a security issue. Containers create similar problems.
Snaps share philosophy with RubyOnRails: very easy to start, but it is a maintenance nightmare
