As to "why should I care", you don't have to... unless you use Ubuntu.

I didn't really understand what I just read, but it sounds like flatpack but different. I'm on mint, so I'm pretty sure it doesn't affect me. The memes I've seen on the subject give me the impression that people don't like it.

Yeah, it's basically flatpak but with more problems and bugs. It's from Canonical and some parts of it are closed source.
