Just be careful with Flatpaks. Snap requires apps to be confined to be in the store (or require CLI options to override and install) so things are generally walled off from your system. While Flathub allows the uploader to decide if they want confinement or not (many don't bother with it). So it puts the responsibility on you as the installer to understand whether the packaging keeps your system safe.
