    Flatpak is far from perfect

    • bloated
    • sandboxing causes confusion
    • interacting with it in CLI can be interesting
    • all packaged libraries rely on the developer of the package you installed to update

      The user to whom I was replying asked for a replacement to Windows’ .exe. Flatpaks are that, but much better.

      They are bound to be bloated and self-serviced, just like .exe.

      KDE Discover and GNOME Software eliminate the need to use CLI.
