    flatpak is kinda a everything or nothing thing, if you want to use it you should probably really commit to it for the best experience, otherwise some of it’s upsides turn into downsides.
    I’m not a huge fan of it, but i like it as an ecosystem

      Agree. The downloads are really chonk but you make it back if you have multiple apps that share the same runtimes.

      It’s possible to use flatpack for just one or two apps, but you pay a disk space and download size tax.
