My May 2020 Linux Snap Package Metrics
Posted onI maintain a several 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. Plus, it’s a nice feeling to see the usage of something I’ve made go up. In October of 2018 I started this Linux Snap Package Metrics series and I’m trying to report back every few months with the numbers.
Here’s the metrics for snaps I maintain for the past month:
Snap | # Active Devices | % Change |
---|---|---|
circleci | 1,345 | +21.8% |
cu-ddns | 53 | +96.3% |
hub | 4,192 | +47.9% |
linode-cli | 106 | +10.4% |
pocket-casts | 787 | +25.9% |
scc | 362 | +67.6% |
stubb | 153 | +150.8% |
zsync | 243 | +43.8% |
