It was me. Reinstalled three times a couple days ago because I’m an idiot.
But I’m an idiot who uses FOSS and I rather be dumb in a world of genius than a genius in a world of dumb.
I like how know one wants snap but everyone chose flatpak.
I like flatpaks
Now I’m just hoping AppImage will follow in Snap’s footsteps.
appimage aren’t bad
Appimage is better for cli apps. Different purposes. Neovim appimage is very useful
Appimage is broken in many ways. Use a container
'ate dependency hell
'ate outdated packages in distro repos
'ate snaps
luv flathub
simple as
I’m an average Flathub enjoyer, there because Canonical try to force me to use o’Snap.
Lets gooooo 🔥
Glad to see growth on flathub 💪
By choice or by force? I’ll take flatpaks over Appimages and literally rocks over snaps, but what is this metric actually saying?
It is saying that more than one million people are actively using Flathub. What do you mean by force?
Well if there’s an application that the developer only releases a flatpak for, do I have a choice in being one of those million if there’s no easy way to compile it myself? What if I’m a newbie linuxer and cannot get all the dev tools installed?
There are no cases of this that I know of. There are some developers that don’t encourage repackaging their apps, though.
what’s your point? if flatpak makes it easier for developers to package their software and easier for users to install it, there’s nothing wrong with it being famous
