Well, if you have any form of build script, makefile, or CI, then you can easily shove that into a flatpak-builder manifest and push the build repo anywhere you want. The default OSTree repository format can be served from any old webserver or S3 bucket after all.
I've done this for personal projects many times, since it's a ridiculously easy way to get scalable distribution and automatic updates in place.
Hmm, okay, that doesn't sound too bad.
Does the sandboxing get into the way much? Can a user tell it to poke a hole into the sandbox, to use some specific folder, for example?
I think, my real problem is that I don't actually use Flatpak for any software I have installed. 😅
I'm not opposed to using Flatpak, but I disabled Flathub pretty quickly on my distro's software store thingamabob, when I accidentally installed some proprietary software from it. Fuck that shit, no matter how much sandboxing I get.
