My October 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 of 2018 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 | % Change |
|---|---|---|
| circleci | 1,102 | +3.5% |
| cu-ddns | 21 | +10.5% |
| hub | 2,525 | +17.2% |
| linode-cli | 75 | +7.1% |
| pocket-casts | 618 | +5.3% |
| scc | 158 | +29.5% |
| zsync | 164 | 0% |
