I agree, but that sounds like false dichotomy to me because snap competes with flatpak.

Agreed, and I came in to mention the dishonest comparison. Before snap, we didn’t install Firefox with a tgz, we installed it with apt from the ubuntu repos. I’ve never installed Firefox from source, and I doubt 99.9% of its users have either.
