Flatpak haters seem to believe that if an app isn't on their distro's repos, it's the developers' fault.

laughs at people scared of choice and "mess" . . .
If they're switcing to linux they should first come to know about open source forking around - arguably - one of the most important features of the whole thing.
If they don't wan't that choice and all that inevitable open source forkery, they probably should go for an apple mac or windows or something like that. And maybe they will have to pay for some software for the privilege because it takes work to do those things. They can of course try plain old ubuntu and do stuff the way canonical wants, that removes quite a bit of choice if it is otherwise too terrifying for them.
But in general, I don't think its a good idea to to try to sell pig-carcasses to vegans by painting them the colours of broccoli.
