Excellent points. Many “alternatives” to traditional distributions like docker, flatpak and similar harm security and stability in the long term. Users need systems that receive security updates for years without having to break functionality.
There are some nice programs that I’d like to run but they’re exclusively distributed through Docker for now. Where does one learn the ropes to become a package maintainer?

Mostly in the documentation section of your distro’s page. Also you can ask in the community.
