From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There's still a few edge cases that Flatpak is not great for. The Flatpak version of Kdenlive video editor can't see Whisper, which it uses to generate subtitles. The Appimage and native builds work flawlessly.
I'm assuming these problems will be addressed eventually but it takes time.
I ran into an issue with flatpak version of Kdenlive that it would render only the topmost V track if it was a simple still image.
Preview worked fine.
Luckily, someone in Kdenlive's Matrix suggested that I use an appimage. I used my distro's version and the final render was fine.
Other than that I had positive experience with flatpaks in general.
Have you reported that bug?
Appimages are pretty bad
