Back to the days of conflicting dependency versions?
Back to the days of manually compiling every program you want to use?
Back to the days of manually unpacking a .deb because the developer didn't offer a package for your distribution?

No back to the days where I could fucking install inkscape and it worked.
You can still do that from the repos, such as
sudo apt install inkscape
What’s the difficulty?
On a ubuntu based distro i recently had the issue that the offered version of inkscape was very old. Some website said to get a current version you should try a flatpack or snap or so. 3 senior hackers were unable to get them to work at all. I imagine OP has had similar problems.
I use arch btw.
