I was recommended this https://flathub.org/apps/io.github.vikdevelop.SaveDesktop Seems very user friendly and can do everything except for installing software.

Yeah, that sucks. I would still want it if I were to use Fedora, as an option.
I checked and Fedora dropped support for the snap plugin. https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/enable-snap-in-gnome-software/76134
These are also the only packages related to gnome-software:
Related Packages
gnome-software-devel
gnome-software-fedora-langpacks
gnome-software-rpm-ostree
From what I remember, their gnome-software already has flatpak support. So all that will be missing is the GUI snap support. Could've been worse.
I added sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-snap gnome-software-plugin-flatpak gnome-software
Looks like Fedora does not have gnome-software-plugin-snap
or gnome-software-plugin-flatpak
in its repos.
I don't wish to learn Nix. I'm perfectly fine with Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora. When a new version comes out, all I have to do is change the versions of the extensions according to the new Gnome version.
Nope, I don't touch the snap-store on Ubuntus (to be fair I don't install any snap plugins for gnome software center on Debian/Fedora either). As for flatpak, it's installed via apt from the regular repos. I didn't even know there was an up to date PPA.
I know about this but that's meant for 18.04 and earlier.
Edit: these are good suggestions tho. Something to work on to improve it even more.
inb4 snap bad, they are bash scripts. Anyone can delete any command they don't like.
Will there be a linux version?
Yeesh, imagine getting this mad because of a post about a messenger. I hate explaining memes because it ruins them, but I guess I have no choice.
When most people hear about Threema, they believe that 5€ is way too much to pay for a messenger. Some realize that 5€ is not that bad, but without a continuous stream of money, a service like this will cease to exist once it runs out of money, so it's better to avoid it. And if they read the entire website, and discover that the company is actually providing messaging solutions used by a lot of companies who pay them monthly, for each of their employees, it becomes clear where the money is coming from, and that the company won't go bankrupt anytime soon.
That's the meme. If you don't like it, I understand. But you can fuck right off with calling everything that mentions a name of an app/service as an ad. I made memes in the past mentioning open source chat apps, and nobody ever called it an ad.
I can respect this, though just because they've released the source code it doesn't mean that what's in the repositories is actually running on the servers. It happened before, and while it is not a big deal, we can't know what is precisely running on there at all times. And the stock Signal app doesn't allow federating with other signal servers out there, so personally I don't care whether the server side has a published source code.
Corporates. 60€/month is an acceptable price for them.
