Moral qualms aside, how practical are Snaps now?

The discussion surrounding snaps always centers around Canonical's full control over them, and while I certainly don't agree with it, I was wondering if anyone here has more experiences with snaps and their practicality vs. flatpaks for daily use.

intermediate linux user here (used it sparingly for about 8 years without learning much terminal usage, finally swapped fulltime last month); i've been using bazzite on a secondary computer i have hooked up to a TV for about a month. i love the bazzite portal and the bazaar, but i'm not really feeling the benefits of immutability; not yet at least. just from initial setup i did have some grievances with it until i got used to using flatpak and brew.

not to imply that there's no point to immutability, but this had me curious, do any of you more casual/hobbyist folk get mileage out of it?
