    @Kajika I don’t see it as a huge deal, Redhat and fedora seem to be moving in a direction that favors flatpaks for GUI apps anyways, and they work pretty well nowadays. If the reduced packaging effort frees up resources to do more work on the core OS or Gnome shell, I’m all for it.

      Yeah me neither, I posted a comment to tell that I am just sharing the news.

      I am not touching flatpaks or snaps or appimage or anything like those either. But I am wondering how the community here would think of it. In hacker news they talk a lot about ‘enterprise’ support and all. I guess they are more biases toward those kinds of things. I guess there’s a difference between how users/business interact with software and developers.

        Flatpaks are actually pretty OK. There’s a security layer that can tweaked with FlatSeal and you can control every single resource a flatpak binary has access to.
