I feel this article misses the point entirely. Flatpak runtimes - which unbundle a huge number of dependencies (such as GNOME's entire platform library set) and allow independent security updates for them - aren't even mentioned. Neither is sandboxing.
I was hoping for something interesting about the technical tradeoffs between the three formats and why I might want to have Fedora support Snap in the future (or why I might not to), etc.
Interesting to read the other comments and discover that Flatpak's really oriented towards desktop software only. I didn't know that.
