I know snap is fairly unpopular in the Linux community, and I’ve seen mixed responses regarding Flatpak. I wanted to know, what’s the general opinion of people in this community regarding this 2 package managers?

I’m fine with Flatpak (and also AppImages if a Flatpak isn’t available). As for Snaps, I don’t like some of Canonical’s decisions like apt installing the Firefox Snap instead of a deb package, and I think the user experience when using Flatpaks is better overall.
This doesn’t mean Flatpaks are perfect for me yet, they just work better than their alternatives.
