The further you are from the center, the more skewed the gravity would be towards the center. I think that as the diameter approaches infinity while the thickness stays the same, that evens out a lot, but it will never become perfect near the edges.

That is to say, the flat planet will feel like a bowl, because the further out you are the more steeply sloped it is relative to the pull of gravity.
