My August 2019 Linux Snap Package Metrics
Posted onI maintain a few Snap packages (installable Linux software packages) and I’ve been very interested in the metrics that Snapcraft (the Snap Store) provides. It’s a (minor) indicator of how large the snap user base is (or at least growth) as well as how useful a snap may or may not be. In October I started this Linux Snap Package Metrics series and I’m trying to report back every month with the numbers until someone tells me otherwise 😄.
Here’s the metrics for snaps I maintain for the past month:
| Snap | # Active Devices |
|---|---|
| circleci | 975 |
| cu-ddns | 19 |
| hub | 1,582 |
| linode-cli | 63 |
| pocket-casts | 539 |
| scc | 75 |
| zsync | 157 |
There’s a couple items of note here:
- I haven’t done this post in a few months so I’ve excluded the % change column this time around.
- I’ve also dropped the distro column. Didn’t seem useful.
