Friends don't let friends use Snap.
Proprietary when flatpak exists, and it doesn't properly address how apps should dynamically request access to things they need. Every time I've used either solution I've run into some permissions problem.
flatpak just makes sense imo
For desktop apps maybe. How do you run a flatpak from the cli? "flatpak run org.something.Command". Awesome.
Both suffer from not making it obvious what directories your application can access and not providing a clear message when you try to access files it can't. The user experience sucks.
The one thing snap does that flatpak doesn't is provide CLI applications. But then nix also does that, so snap can go pound salt.
