You are entirely right, and I was entirely wrong. It is snap, not flat that is the
suspicious one under Ubuntu's influence. So ignore what I said except the part about
IPTVnator (or other apps that do the same or much the same) being amazing and useful.

Something about flatpak seems a little hinky to
me -- Ubuntu is getting too heavily into data collection lately, and flatpak seems part of
it, though I haven't researched it fully; too much to do and Ubuntu avoidance is easy.
I suspect it's actually snaps rather than flatpak you're thinking of. Snaps
apparently live in a single central repository under Ubuntu's control, and
have additional issues on top of the integration problems you always
see with these "universal" packaging solutions.
(I don't run any form of Ubuntu myself, but I read a lot of complaints
about it on Lemmy.)
