Former Canonical developer is working on a script that replaces Snaps with Flatpaks
Beware that usage on Snap on non-Ubuntu distros is less secure https://github.com/nextcloud-snap/nextcloud-snap/wiki/Why-Ubuntu-is-the-only-supported-distro
"Snap with AppArmor insecure on Debian?" (nextcloud-snap issue#1193)

What is the preferred way to install Nextcloud?
No, Ubuntu is the only supported distro. For security reasons, the snap version should not be installed on any other distro. The maintainer wrote a detailed explanation here: https://github.com/nextcloud-snap/nextcloud-snap/wiki/Why-Ubuntu-is-the-only-supported-distro

Great to see Canonical improving the Snap ecosystem
I'd also love your comments on this claim that snap is silently insecure, not on Ubuntu itself, but on distributions without certain dependencies.

The future of apps on Linux
For instance this is the PSA from Nextcloud over using its snap in other distros: https://github.com/nextcloud-snap/nextcloud-snap/wiki/Why-Ubuntu-is-the-only-supported-distro
- PSA: If you wish to install the Snap version of Nextcloud, only do so on an Ubuntu system.

Are snap cronjobs independent of system cronjobs?
I was having issues with my nextcloud server installed through snap where it was being extremely slow on first load. I heard that running a specific cronjob for nextcloud to do background tasks periodically can speed it up. So, for the snap version of nextcloud, I found the command that enables nextcloud's cronjob (details listed here) sudo snap set nextcloud nextcloud.cron-interval=10m What was strange is that in the aformentioned link, it aluded to the cronjob already being enabled, so to check this I ran crontab -l, but to my surprise, I didn't even have cron installed on the server. So does snap have its own version of cron packaged with the installed program that it uses for itself independent of the system cron? Or is me not having cron installed the reason for why it appears that nextclouds cronjob isn't working?
Snap is a daemon that runs in the background, so it can run code at intervals whenever needed (like any already running program). the term "cron" here is basically just referring to a scheduled task. the code is basically just "wait however long then run the command"
