Earth is a created realm - not necessarily flat (plenty of altitude changes), but definitely not a meaningless ball spiraling millions of miles an hour in a billions of years old void of creation and destruction.
The spinning ball has two primary characteristics:
You're spinning
There's ultimately a curving downward and away from any position you're at, given enough distance
Both of these are obviously untrue and any meaningful declaration otherwise is based out of misunderstanding of either the theory around the ball or the opposing viewpoint.
That said, I don't spend much time worrying about this stuff anymore, but it is life changing, for sure.
Firstly, "flat earth," doesn't propose a disk. Secondly, night and day on a flat earth are easily explained in several ways - much more easily than night and day on a ball that continuously arcs and speeds in a variety of directions simultaneously without any ascertainable sensation of motion.
These are all among the first things you'll learn in even a badic 40 minute presentation by even a clown like Eric Dubay - if you haven't gotten past these things, you haven't even looked into the idea yet, m8.
That's right, I haven't. Because nobody has given me a reason to.
Not a disk? OK, what shape?
How are night/day easily explained by flat but not round? Round means that the Sun blocks the light on the opposite side from where the Sun is, and that explains night. Day should be obvious light from the Sun. How does flat explain it better?
I’m not saying I believe this model, but one that was thought provoking was that the day/night can still be explained by the sun being much closer and traveling in a circle.
One attempt to model compared the light/shadow to the yin/yang symbol.
Whether the model is correct or not I wouldn’t be surprised if that concept was part of what the yin/yang symbol was supposed to represent.

Why would a ball be meaningless? Would a disk somehow be meaningful?
Right, given enough distance.
Not obvious to me. A round Earth explains why day and night exist. How would a flat Earth explain day/night?
