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?

    Flatpak made my life much easier. It solves so many problems that the Linux ecosystem had. “Package once, use everywhere” is great.

    Snap could have been similarly good, but I think Canonical made some mistakes.

    I don’t hate Snap. I think a bit of friendly competition is good for both Snap and Flatpak.
