I wouldn't use snap or Flatpak, just sandbox using bwrap or firejail. They are really easy to use.

Containers also provide good development sandboxing. With distrobox you can run many distributions inside your own within a clean and isolated environment.





Just use flatpak. Let's not steer newbies towards barely maintained untested bespoke solutions.

Flatpak uses bwrap, it's not esoteric folklore software. The OP asked a serious question and they're entitled to a serious answer.
