I am definitely not against flatpaks, but I still use system packages when possible. I find too many weird issues with flatpaks when I need them to do more than be a standalone application (see Steam). Flatpaks feel like a walled garden more than a sandbox. Just give me more UI prompts for what you want to access as opposed to needing an entirely separate program (Flatseal).

Thank you Canonical I love your proprietary packaging. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

I will back flatpaks when they stop feeling so sandboxed. I understand that is the point, but on Mint it don't get any specific popuo requests and instead have to sit in flatseal and manually give access. .deb 4 lyfe
