Yes. Very mean.
I’m uninformed, why were things like snap and flatpak created?
I barely understand docker, but I’m starting to understand why it can be beneficial, although bloated.
Flatpak:
To limit shady proprietary software from accessing your full storage / hardware.
You can manage the sandbox access through tools like FlatSeal.Snap:
To ruin your day / user experience.Both where introduced as a universal way to distribute packages on various distros.
The only attempt at answering the question 👍

If you’re using a stable distro, the repo will end up with programs that are years out of date. So instead of compiling manually, you use flatpak/snap/appimage/nix/guix as an extra package manager. They also allow devs to release cross-distro packages.

I would rather have a native .deb package, this is why I use Linux Mint and if really necessary I will grab a flatpak.
With current ubuntu shenanigans better use lmde
LMDE is a distro?
Linux Mint Debian Edition
Isn’t Mint already Debian based? What is the difference between mint and lmde?
Linux Mint is Ubuntu based as it originally started as a protest distro against decisions take by canonical.
LMDE cuts out the middle man and is directly based on Debian.
If you use Cinnamon DE and like LTS releases; where secure patches are backported and feature releases are held back until the next major release, then LMDE is a good choice.Mint is Ubuntu based which is Debian based which is just plainly Based.
I see! So close to LXDE.
Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment
Linux mint debian edition
I like flatpak for someone who is terminally gui.
For a few packages, yes. You can change this behavior, but there’s no GUI for it.
I spent several hours trying to figure out why the fish shell configuration page (which is a dynamically generated local web page) wouldn’t work, including uninstalling the snap version of Firefox and using apt to try to install the normal version of Firefox. Because neither version of Firefox could open the page, I spent hours trying to diagnose why the fish shell wasn’t working properly. Eventually, I installed a different browser and it worked. I finally figured out that it was because Canonical tricked me into re-installing the snap version of Firefox via apt even though that is clearly not what I wanted. I’m still a bit salty about it.
