A few months back I made a video about the ways Ubuntu is losing favor with many Linux users who formerly loved it. One aspect of that video was talking about a discussion question regarding Apt and Snap which many people have said I am wrong...but it turns out that the Chromium package in the new Ubuntu will be merely running a snap install through the apt command...is that much different?

We discussed the media center with OpenElec for a spare computer last week, but this time we will install OSMC on a raspberry pi and add some media for testing.
On my test machine, the card was bad so the last music files did not copy and that also prevented the video from copying, but all of the concepts were correct.
