You know what? I know they’re far from the ideal solution, but I have installed a few things with snaps … and it was fine. It worked seamlessly and painlessly (in some instances).

Generally, I’d prefer other ways to install, but snaps aren’t the end of the world.

(This concludes my hot take of the day.)
