It is not easy to imagine the earth as flat.
As stated previously, if you have placed the universe in a box, it is only then, when you may wonder: where the edge is.
The perspective has to be the correct one.
The box means: 3rd dimension, three dimensional space.
Flat earth is in the second dimension.
The 2nd dimension may have the 4 edges, but that does not mean that the content is limited.
I mean what is inside of the 4 edges can be a projection, a 3 dimensional projection.
And you are looking, right now, at it !
This monitor, or the mobile phone screen is a flat surface.
I do not mean that the monitor is flat, but the screen on which you are looking at, is.
If you get it, then look at this youtube video (which is only one of many examples) on how a 3d world can be experienced on a 2d surface.
Youtube: 3d
Landscape Animation
And if you have, ever, played a 3 dimensional computer game, then it may help you to understand that it is very possible to have a great experience in it.
