I use flat, but I round the edges. I also am trying to get used to my spindlemaster, which is an oval bottom. Not sure I like it yet but it does leave a very nice finish. I suppose with some practice I could cut my sanding time down considerably. But...
 
I have never tried a skew. I only turn pens and the Sorby Spindlemaster and a parting tool are the only tools I use right now. I may try a skew after the holidays to see if I am missing anything...:)
 
I also have both, but I prefer to use an oval. When I was taught to turn, I wasn't shown a skew. I kinda had to learn on my own (with much help from this forum), and at that time the only skew I had was oval. On a side note....I'm not sure how some of you guys & gals can use a skew from start to finish. I tried once and was very uncomfortable with the vibrations.
