looking around online it seems possible but apparently not a good experience? i think the posts were a bit old so maybe something has changed since then

Edit: i don't want to hop distro, i just want to change the desktop manager.

along with Debian

Debian uses separate repos, which are incompatible to Ubuntu.

Snap and Flatpak are both available as packages. I don't know about the availability of snap or Flatpak packages in the graphical 'appstores' in Ubuntu or Mint, but in Plasma Discover both are available by plugins.
