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?

    What is bad about snap, it’s that if you are on Ubuntu you can’t choose the format of the application you want to install. If you install the package from the repo it will install the snap.

    But if you like Linux it’s because it give you the choice (and the responsibility which come with it).

    Flatpak is just an option. You still have the choice to use it or not.
