Will Mageia 6 someday have a function similar to Snaps in Ubuntu ? I have not tried Snaps or Flatpak yet, but
it is something that I want to learn.

Mageia may someday support something like that, but most certainly not with Mageia 6.

Mageia 6 already supports flatpak, so Mageia 7 will probably also support it. See viewtopic.php?f=15&t=12090

snap probably not.

Tanx, I'm try to understand flatpak.

Edit:
Is there any integration between MCC/software center and flatpak? I have used:

$ flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
restart
$ flatpak remote-ls flathub --app
$ flatpak install --user --from https://flathub.org/repo/appstream/...
from: https://flathub.org/apps/

Please do not hijack other threads, if you have a question about flatpak please start your own thread.

And no, there is currently no integration between MCC/software center and flatpak.

For completeness about agnostic packages: Magiea also already supports Appimage
