you don’t have to go long on any linux group before flatpack vs snaps comes up. But the people that made Deepin linux also made a new format called linglong.

Anyone actually use them and compare linglong apps to flatpack versions.

It honestly just sounds like another case of “Not Invented Here” syndrome. Considering that Linux Deepin is developed in Wuhan, China, I don’t see this really taking off like Flatpak did.

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.
