Flatpak is fine. Snap is Canonical's proprietary version, which ties you specifically to their app store. It's not designed to be an open standard but Canonical has made it compulsory in one of the largest distros (Ubuntu) and its derivatives. There are also problems with its sandboxing mechanism competing with AppArmor.

AppArmor and SELinux sandboxing stuff pushed me to only install services with Docker on my headless machines ๐Ÿ˜ฃ found out most services can't write to their own homefolder
