Isn't flatpak available in all distros?

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 1 points 3 days ago

Alpine. FreeBSD. OK, spent.

[-] remer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

People love hating on flatpak for some reason. Maybe they only have 256MB of storage or something.

(how) does it work on phones?

[-] anon5621@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago

Yes it work on arm cpu fine on my oneplus6 post market os I am watching freetube in flatpak

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 1 points 1 week ago

oh, postmarket. no it does not work anywhere, then, especially since phones are in the focus in the title

[-] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

Flatpaks do work on phones if app itself support the architecture. And this does support the architecture

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 1 points 6 days ago

how do you install a flatpak package on a phone? how would I do it?

And if you reaally need it in android, that is also technically possible:

[-] mexicancartel@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 5 days ago

You just need a linux phone. And you have flatpak availiable. Just install arm version flatpak and run flatak install whatever

[-] ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org 1 points 1 day ago

ok, I see. was asking because OP said that it works everywhere, including phones

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
