Cons of Using snap
The current Snap Store is not open source. The one you referenced is dead as proven by the repo you're article refers to: https://github.com/noise/snapstore/

Probono, creator of AppImage, in an attempt to get AppImage support, is banned from the OBS Studio organization on GitHub after downright rude comments and accuses them of supporting Flatpak because of the bounty offered by RH. "In any event, please do not bother our project anymore"
If you're referring to the old HOWTO article for hosting your own snap store server, the software it used to do that stopped working several years ago.

Can some one explain to me in basic terms why snaps are so disliked?
That's nice and all, but besides the complete lack of official serversoftware that can be hosted by anyone, I'm going to guess that forcing another URL would mean that it uses that repo INSTEAD OF the official one. With regular package managers and Flatpaks, that's not the case. You can add repo's in ADDITION to the originals with those. The only mention of a self-hostable snap server that I can find, is this one. However, it is an unofficial server and has been depreciated. In other words: it's not compatible/functional with the latest version of Snapd (the clientside) anymore and will remain like that.
- Are flatpaks the future? I tend to agree.

After 1.5 years of using Ubuntu I decided to migrate to Fedora today... so yeah, hello world!
Your link is an blogpost from 2016 that points to: https://github.com/noise/snapstore README: snapstore was a minimalist example of a "store" for snaps, but is not compatible with the current snapd implementation. As a result I have removed the contents here to avoid further confusion.

Ubuntu 21.04 Released
In fact, Bret Barker has published an open source (Apache License) SNAP store on GitHub. We’re already looking at how to flesh out his proof-of-concept and bring it into snapcore itself.

Not sure what changed in Teamviewer's Detection scripts But it is no longer allowing Free Non-Commercial use for me. Can Teamviewer provide Home licenses or something to prevent their terrible auto detection from pushing me onto another Remote desktop service?
Take the hint, don't fight the push. TV doesn't want you freeloading non-commercials. I recommend Rustdesk.
