Debian 10: How to fix "error: system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using "squashfs"

I tried to install snapcraft using the instruction from here https://snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snap-on-debian
And later tried to install shotcut using "sudo snap install shotcut --classic"
However I get this error
"error: system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using "squashfs": mount: /tmp/sanity-mountpoint-501228691: mount failed: Operation not permitted."
how do I fix this, I'm using debian 10

The issue might be related to trying to run snap inside a container (a VPS, or a docker container) that does not have the correct configuration to run snap.

To run snap nicely inside a container... Look for the following keywords:

openvz /dev/fuse CAP=SYS_ADMIN --privileged loopback 'modprobe fuse'

my advice is to not use snap and to use apt-get instead.
