Are they, technically, any different than APT repositories?
Don't get me wrong. I hate Snap much more than the next guy, but the idea of keeping a repository so you can go look for, and discover, stuff that is supposedly also vetted by someone is nice.
The issue is, when an app store is a monopoly and not standardized.
APT repositories is, in my eyes, an example of "the good" type of app store.
