@Wimpy, @popey and others testing snaps last night 🍻 🕹 #snapcraftio
On my way to a Canonical Engineering Sprint to work on #snapcraftio. It was too much of a hassle to check bags this time, the agency did not book us flights with bags included and involved payments while at the airport so once again, traveling light.
That moment when you run top and realize you have k8s and Prometheus running on your desktop (old test), and I can clean it up with a simple `sudo snap remove microk8s`, #snapcraftio ftw.
For those who use #shfmt - that snap package has also been pushed to stable. This package was lagging behind as I "thought" 🙄 I was watching the releases on GitHub. Oops. Corrected! #Ubuntu #Linux #snapcraft #snapcraftio
Heyo! Just promoted the (latest) @[email protected] to the stable snap package channel. Enjoy! #Ubuntu #Linux #snapcraft #snapcraftio

I recently read a #rant that installing server apps is too hard, and it shouldn't be like this. When I remember how clunky it was to install #Wordpress to setup my own blog, I fully agree.

But then this: I Installed my #Nextcloud server on a fresh Ubuntu box with LITERALLY one command:

sudo snap install nextcloud

After which I could directly login to my server and start using it (and I still do every day, very heavily). My Nextcloud has been automatically updating itself ever since (though it is still on an older still-supported release). I wish more #selfhosting servers were like this.

Credits go to @nextcloud, @kyrofa, #snapcraftio #snappy, #Ubuntu, and #LetsEncrypt. Thannk you all 😀​
