<pre class="moz-quote-pre" wrap="">The problems start that Pop!_OS is based on Ubuntu. Ubuntu does not provide
native packages for digiKam. digiKam's snap packages are useless, the snap
package format is a sandboxed container. With digiKam in a snap package you
hardly have the possibility to access files outside of your home area. Since
VLC is also a snap package, it becomes even more difficult to start it. I can't
even recommend our AppImage since VLC is only available as a snap package.
Look for a modern KF5 plasma based Linux distribution in which digiKam is
natively available.

I running Pop!_OS. I installed digiKam and VLC via snap. I have tried
everything that my limited experience knows how to do, but the only way
I can get the videos to open in VLC is by right-clicking, "Open With..."
and then selecting Url Handler Script which then opens a window and from
there I have to click on VLC and then the video opens. Too many steps.
Can anyone point me to some instructions on making this work?
I apologize for any ignorance on my end. I recently moved to Linux from
a macOS environment. Trying to give up on big tech. So far digiKam has
been a great alternative to Lightroom.
