It turns out that that video was four years old. It seems that he's
done an updated version of it nine months ago that focuses on

One thing he pointed out that concerns me is that the Snap Store is
proprietary, which doesn't fit in with Ubuntu being open source.

The comments beneath the video are also rather interesting.
