Today's video is just a quick update to let you know how to install Snaps on Peppermint Linux 8 and other distributions based on Ubuntu.

"Snaps are containerised software packages that are simple to create and install. They auto-update and are safe to run. And because they bundle their dependencies, they work on all major Linux systems without modification." From SnapCraft.io.
