I didn’t install a flatpak or snap from the software store.
What kind of package did I install through the command line? Thanks I’m a newb.

Ok thanks yeah it was a .deb package. It says it in the command where I installed the repository. I thought all packages were supposed to be either snap or flatpak but now I understand.
Flatpaks and Snaps are supposed to replace native distro packaging, in order to be distro agnostic (you could run it on any distro), the issue with Snaps is that it depends on Canonical’s mood and it is Ubuntu “native”, whereas Flatpak is way more used elsewhere.
There is AppImages as well, but it used to a lesser extent.
