You are correct about the flatpak. I use 2.10.8 flatpak in a Kubuntu 16.04.
There are ways-and-means of getting many plugins working. Lack of QT support
means no gmic_qt plugin. Too many dependency issues for both gutenprint and
SANE. Apart from that, python plugins and script-fu works ok.

Why use it, still plenty questions around from Gimp 2.8.x users, so I run that
as well.

Up to you but a Kubuntu 18.10 has an end-of-life 2019-07 while Kubuntu 18.04 is
2023-04 All depends how you want to maintain your installation.
