The universe is not a black hole because the "Schwarzschild radius equation" only applies in a very specific/narrow circumstance, namely a perfectly spherical, non-rotating mass surrounded by vacuum in flat spacetime.

Applying that equation to the observable mass of the universe violates basically every single requirement needed to apply the equation.
