Basically title.

I’m wondering if a package manager like flatpak comes with any drawback or negatives. Since it just works on basically any distro. Why isn’t this just the default? It seems very convenient.

    I think I’ve been having an issue with the Steam Flatpak where after updating, the .desktop file breaks. If not, my icon is broken for different reasons. Either way, I’ve been running Steam through the command line for ages.

      I’ve had it happen with a few apps. They distribute the binaries with the version number in the filename, so on updates, it changes the file name.

      it’s fucking stupid way of versioning things.
