Yea I love Flatpak. No dependency hell, works great in Discover, never need to pipe curl into bash for some huge installer script, it gives a little bit of safety with sandboxing, and you can even install/update without the admin password

I almost always favor it except for something more core to the system (web browser, Steam... that's about it lol)
