Personally I'd recommend installing in this order:

  1. Packages from your distro's native repository.
  2. Flatpaks from Flathub (please avoid Fedora's Flatpaks).
  3. AppImages/Debs usually provided on the app developer's site.
  4. The Arch User Repository (AUR) if compatible.
  5. Tarballs.
  6. Ubuntu Snaps.
  7. Fedora Flatpaks.
