I'm currently using Slackware current. I use an approach of compiling from source or using AppImage. Things like Flatpak and Snaps are an opaque black box to me.
I have AppImages for things like Zoom, KeePass and LibreOffice. I don't need to keep updating them. They do what I want them to do. I have them on a separate partition. If I reinstall my system they're all ready to go out of the gate.
It's ridiculously simple.
I did try out Fedora awhile ago, but decided it wasn't for me. Why is everything a Flatpak? Just use the repo mechanism.
