You can layer basically any RPM onto the base system with rpm-ostree, but it's slow and inefficient, or you can install anything from any distro by spinning a container with Distrobox and exporting the command to your main system.

The universeal blue family of operating systems also comes with Homebrew, the Linux port of the popular Mac package manager. The idea being that flatpak is for GUI apps and homebrew for the cli
