Why does almost all commercial software that chooses to support Linux use Snap instead of flatpak?

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.

They used to have an example implementation here, though: https://ubuntu.com/blog/howto-host-your-own-snap-store https://github.com/noise/snapstore

Is releasing via Snap that bad?
interesting read. unfortunately, the 'snapstore' github project (here) that it links to now says:

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.

Snaps. Why? Please Stop
Oh don't get me started on that. I use Firefox on a work machine and I spent a number of hours troubleshooting why it couldn't access the Internet when I was connected on VPN.
I suspected it had something to do with snapd, so I downloaded the .tar.gz release of Firefox and it worked. I kept investigating and figured it must have something to do with snap.firefox.firefox apparmor profile because the VPN client was symlinking the /etc/resolv.conf to /opt/.../resolv.conf
However, updating the apparmor profile didn't help so I ultimately realized that snap has a hardcoded list of mounts that it mounts into the app container [1] and there's no way to change this.
There are a number of reasons to hate on snapd, but this almost made me flip the table.

DEAR UBUNTU…
Of course, nothing's stopping anyone from contributing more complete selinux support. Looks like they take external pull requests in a pretty straightforward manner.

Why I like using Snaps
the system is actually open https://github.com/snapcore/snapd, its just the url they use is their own
- I am installing Ubuntu
- Firefox Cannot Open Zoom Links
-
Annoying message keep appearing can't fix by apt update and apt upgrade.
That's not true. The git is here.

How is this "for humans" in any reasonable universe? The firefox Snap mess should have a better solution.
thanks for that. Following your link I arrived at https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/12495 which covers the code. 22 commits, 19 files touched, this was a big job which indicates a little bit of a design miss, it will be very good to have this. It's the last remaining piece of "firefox snap sucks" I think.
