As a linux user, but not a developer, I've always been surprised by the backlash against Flatpack and Snap.
For me they work wonderfully. On Ubuntu I usually go for the Snap since it just works. Solving multiple dependency issues before I can use a tool always cost me time before. Now, not so much. Even AppImage is nice.
The fact that most software is even available on Linux now is due to the fact that developers can create one app for Linux, in stead of multiple.
Maybe I'm not familiar enough with GNU/Linux to see the drawbacks, but if it's just disk space I'll happily make that trade.
