Gnome Software, at least, will happily update both your RPMs and your
Flatpaks.

But only when the stars are properly aligned.  It is more accurate to say 
the intention is that Gnome Software will update both (using packagekit). 

I do try to use Gnome Software for updates, but prefer dnf when I need a 
not-installed package.   Software Update stopped working on one system
under Fedora 34 (fresh install), but has been working since upgrading to 
Fedora 35.  Another system (upgraded over multiple Fedora versions) has 
been updating reliably with Fedora 35, but did have transient problems with
previous versions of Fedora.
