## Why aren't snaps launching with `home_alias` set?
Snaps rely on AppArmor and [AppArmor doesn't follow symlinks](https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+bug/1485055). When `home_alias` is any value other than `none` a symlink will be created and pointing to `home_attr`. It is recommended to use alternative software packages to snaps.
All users in Kanidm can change their name (and their spn) at any time. If you change `home_attr` from `uuid` you must have a plan on how to manage these directory renames in your system.
## Why won't you take this FAQ thing seriously?
Look, people just haven't asked many questions yet.
