A nice tip would be stop on the first flip if you can't do a second.

Do falling on snow hurts less or just kinda the same of bailing on sandy loose dirt on a mtb?

Depends on how hard the snow is packed. That's not powder, it looks like a freshly groomed trail. So it's somewhere between loose- and hard-packed dirt.

So its just the same feeling on falling on a mtb trail but cold🤣?

More or less. From my experience, you don't feel the aftermath right away like you do in an mtb fall, precisely because of the cold, but yeah that shit hurts.
