Oh definitely. Canonical forcing us to use snap Firefox was very shitty. I mean I still use Ubuntu because I'm lazy, but I did change the snap Firefox thing to the apt libraries or whatever.

I really don't understand why they don't just adopt flatpak.

I don't believe Flatpak has the ability to package something like node. It certainly can't package kernels or system services (at least not without leaving the user with a ton of manual work to do that would make it not much better than getting a tarball).
