   There is 'something' to be said for the 'concept'; as there has always   
   been fragmentation across distro/s and their differences.   
      
   So, one should probably debate the pro/s & con/s of the various   
   approaches to the concept, which results in yet another 'fragmentation'   
   development.   
      
   Reading the snap wp article, I learned that the different Ub flavors   
   have dealt w/ the 'contrary' scheme of flatpak 'differently' (from each   
   other), but now they are supposed to get in line.   
      
   Personally I'm not convinced that any of the other containerized systems   
   are any better than Barry Kauler's (of Puppy fame) Easy OS. I think I   
   interpret Jesse Smith's opinion as the same as mine.
