Looking online, there are some suggestions to either (re)install xapp:

sudo apt install --reinstall xapp

or a related library:

sudo apt install --reinstall gir1.2-xapp-1.0

However, usually I find that errors like this mean nothing, so I wouldn’t be surprised if these steps change nothing.

Definitely flatpak related then. Try running one of your flatpak apps from the terminal, and post the output here; might help pinpoint the issue. You can list the ones you have installed with flatpak list, then flatpak run <one of the listed apps, e.g. org.videolan.vlc>.

/dev/nvme0 is probably your SSD. But if it passed you probably have nothing to worry about

It still sounds to me like something’s up with the disk. Can’t think of any solutions to suggest but I would run a SMART health check on it:

<span style="color:#323232;">sudo apt install smartmontools  
</span><span style="color:#323232;">sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda
</span>

If you prefer a graphical tool, you can do the same thing with GNOME Disks, which also has options for disk benchmarking.

In the resulting report, the overall health state should be “PASSED”, the “Type” column should show “Pre-fail” and “Old age” values, and the “Media-Wearout-Indicator” should be close to 100. If the overall health state is “FAILED”, then you will want to back up your files immediately and consider getting a new SSD.

Even worse: the .deb file’s dependences are only available in a specific version of Ubuntu LTS or with PPAs.
