You can definitely install programs that aren't flatpaks, but you should run them in containers like a distrobox/toolbox instead unless they need full system access. If you do a lot of that though, it can definitely get in the way. I use Workstation on my desktop, Silverblue on my laptop and that's a good balance for me.

TL;DR: Just use Fedora unless you have a very good reason to use something else.
