No filesystem access for a flatpak app just means it cant read host system files on its own, without user permission. You can still give it files or directories of files through the file explorer for the app to work with, just that it’s much safer since it can only otherwise view files in its sandbox.

Which is fine for some apps, try that with an IDE.
Why does an IDE need unfettered access to my whole FS? Access to the project directory, and maybe the runtime directory, have to be enough.
To be fair, the title says more apps, not all apps…

As if sandboxes are some brand new concept…
Of course people want them for some use-cases. No one here is saying that every application in the world should be restricted that way, grandpa.

Nobody was freaking out about sandboxing.

Lmao so you saying “the community” isn’t actually you speaking for the community, but when I say “nobody” suddenly I was being literal.
Nice mental gymnastics.
Also nowhere did I say or even imply that I think you don’t like sandboxing… You’re pretty bad at this.
