I know nothing about how flatpak works other than that it's containerized. But this meme tells me it's the OS's responsibility to create the flatpak, and not the developer's? Is that right?

I've never used it. Its like all the others though and I have been forced to use snaps. Those I slowly replace every time I decide to start fresh.
Try linux mint, it's basically ubuntu but without snap (you can install snap if you want to, but it's not forced on you)
flatkill.org
that website is such a joke, I can't believe the guy's still paying for the domain name... The whole argument boils down to "Many flatpak apps don't make use of the sandbox by default, which is less secure than not having a sandbox at all" and "this one app I like doesn't work in flatpak, therefore all of it is bad".
...unless it literally is a joke and I'm just missing out on the sarcasm?
People always forget about appimages.
As they should /s
Honestly its neat but I don't see why I would want it over flatpak ever
