It needs to be planned for as many of us, me included, didn't have

I am now going to be rebuilding machines that have small /var
partitions. At least with flatpack, I can use applications that are not
in any Fedora repository.
Many of the servers and services, ie dnf, apt, postgres, mysql, apache
(httpd), knot (dns), among others (except bind9 which for historical
purposes uses /etc), have been using /var since I can remember. Adding
flatpak to the mix makes sense. Snaps are there now, too, but I seem to
recall them originally hanging out at /snap, at least on Ubuntu.
I have separate partitions for /home and /var. You could even go the
LVM route which gives you the ability to grow the storage area
relatively easily. I've never lost anything doing it that way.
