You may be wondering why there isn’t just one way of selecting and installing applications under Linux.

This automatically makes it harder for newcomers to determine whether what they are doing is the right choice and approach. In the world of Linux there are multiple approaches to search for, select and install applications. And recently the Linux Snap Store now offers distribution specific instruction pages, making the installation process even easier. The Snap Store from Canonical is one of those solutions to give Linux on the desktop a friendlier face. Most people who use modern technology are used to getting their mobile apps from a convenient application hub like the Play Store or the App Store. To make Linux more popular and to increase user acceptance it needs a more human face, so it is necessary to make the switch for beginners as simple as possible and to keep it as close as possible to the world they already know. Most people who are faced with the choice of this switch mainly think of all the difficulties they probably encounter on their way and everything that was possible in their old familiar world and perhaps no longer in that new unknown world. This also applies to a switch from Windows or macOS to Linux. The problem is often much more in the will to change than in the ability to change. In the beginning it is hard to make the changes your own and to feel at home in it, but after a while you have made it your own and you feel at ease again. This applies to a new job, the annual changes in the departure times of public transport, the learning of a new programming language and a move to a new city with all its new streets, people and habits. Every change is difficult in the beginning.
