You are welcome :)

"I could try a fresh install of Quark OS Plasma on a different partition and see if I run into the issue again doing exactly what I did the first time." Yes, that would be really valuable, please post back the result. You may need to reboot after installing Flatpak framework. Installing Flatpak from Software center is the same as from terminal. There is no significant difference, so we would guess some glitch, maybe lack of reboot or something similar. In anyway thanks for reproting :)

Well, try to run Google Chrome from terminal: $ qrepolist $ google-chrome-stable and post back the terminal output.

Snaps are not installed by default, but it's enabled. Anyone can easily install any snap application.

Flatpaks on Quarkos are working fine here. Perhaps you only need to reboot your machine in order to get Flatpaks working. What DE are you using, Plasma, Trinity, other ? How exactly did you install flatpak applications ?
