In this part, I agree, company laptop only provide 256 usable 234gb, and well… it doesn’t works great if I use a lot of flatpak apps for now, So I opt to use rpms… if 512, it will be different…
Dependencies are contained in the flatpak. That’s why something like zenmap. Which requires python 2. Can run on a system that doesn’t have python 2 installes
That is fucking stupid, but mostly because why on Earth should you drop a valid package format plenty of people use? Forcing rpm out will force people to use dnfdragora for that, creating two different app stores for one distribution.
Flatpaks are IMO good and are a great option for a casual user who doesn’t want to accidentally screw up their system. Fully packed isolated dependencies, permission systems and other features make them great in many ways.
Ok here is a bit of a rant
Fr, Especially on Arch based distros where the Aur (which is wayy better) exists + I don’t use gnome I use Cinnamon(Gnome done right)

Really? Why not?
I find them incredibly useful for some applications.
For some development stuff, though, I still prefer to use the installed version.
So VS Code, for example, I have that installed.
The flat pack just does not work as well.
But Podman Desktop, which is a flat pack, is just excellent.
I think they use up too much space. I primarily use laptops with limited SSD storage and using flatpak has come back to bite me a couple of times.
The space becomes less and less of an issue the more of your system is in flatpaks, as any shared dependencies won’t be duplicated.
Oh that makes sense.
