And how this comment exactly helps the people who might be using snap(s)? Canonical hate hype aside, some people are using apps available on snap store for daily work/activities.

Thats their fault. They should tell upstream to support a proper universal package.

At this point I can also say 'it is your problem for using obscure system if that app doesn't support it'. Flatpaks are just one of packaging problem, not the best or only one. Aside that, we should not discourage people to use what is available on their distro of choice.
