Edge on Linux

Kevin_CT  "It seems to me there are really only 3 distributions to publish to.  You have Debian based, Red Hat and BSD.  Even if they only do Debian and Red Hat and maybe a source to compile, everything will be covered.  It seems like most people used Snapd now over Flatpak, but I'm unsure of that.  I know my system can use both to install."

Microsoft is keeping distribution plans under wraps at this point (see MissyQ's response on the Edge on Linux: Package Formats? thread, for example) but I suspect that TheVetDev's observation in that thread ("I would assume they will be snap first since Microsoft and Canonical have such a tight relationship and code, teams, and powershell are already snaps maintained my Microsoft.") is right -- Microsoft is most likely to release a Snapd version starting out.   

I'm okay with that, because Solus supports both Snapd and Flatpak.  If and when Microsoft releases a Linux version, I'll test it.  I have no idea whether Microsoft intends to deliver anything in deb, rpm or eopkg.  I guess it doesn't make much difference, so long as Microsoft releases Snapd and Flatpak versions.  Most distros support one, the other, or both.
