Love these posts. Plus every month you get to see the flatpak haters try to convince us we are using the wrong technology.
Flatpak has its issues, sure, but it’s better and more open than snap, while maintaining utterly simple usability.
Great news! Security and build-release people also hate snap junk.
Same reasons.
Ask us about
npmnext.
I never really understood flatpak hate.
The storage use is negligible nowadays.
Permission requests feel way more user friendly and modern.
Finally linux has a universal package and people still hate it. It’s probably one of the best things to happen to linux in years
I LOVE MANAGING DEPENDENCIES WITH apt AND BUILDING FROM SOURCE
Flatpack is alr ig,But I have the AUR on Cachyos which is much better then Flatpack.

We like terms like “security professionals” or “build-release engineers” to describe why package validation and provenance is important, as is SSoT for avoiding dependency hell by proxy.
But when you don’t understand the real terms, use whatever ya like. Yes, honey, that’s the goer-upper, and now we press the button for the floor we want.
ELI5 what is wrong with Flatpak.
Can’t see text scroll like hackermens. Takes up a bit more space. Have to copy and paste a directory into flatseal if your folders are separated.
