Being someone who doesn't fully understand AppArmor vs SELinux, how well do snaps work on Fedora?
There is nothing "unsafe" about flatpak. In fact for every package on flathub you can see exactly what the "unofficial" packagers do in the corresponding github repository. For example here is the repository for Spotify, if you look at the json manifest file you can see they are repackaging the "official" Snap with the necessary libraries and scripts to support it running as a flatpak. Everything there is open source and able to be examined.
- Food for thought
- Spotify with dark theme titlebar

Are flatpaks that are unverified safe?
If you click on the "Manifest" link for the package on flathub, it will take you to where the code that packages the app resides. There you can review exactly what the packager does in the json manifest. Here's the one for the Spotify client, for example, which shows where it pulls in dependencies and where it downloads the proprietary code from (in this case they base it on the snap) and what commands it executes while packaging the flatpak.

Error about connecting to snapcraft.io showed up while updating spotify flatpak.
Judging by the manifest, the Spotify Flatpak is built from the Spotify Snap.

Suddenly have 75 updates and many of them don't have any commits on their flathub github page
I went to update today and sometimes i'll get like 10-15 updates after a couple days but today I see 75(!) updates. I went to check the manifest github page to see some of the changes because I like to keep up with what changed. However, for the first time that I remember ever being the case, I have updates for flatpaks that have not committed any changes. For example VLC hasn't had anything new in over a month.
