I am “not” using Flatpak on Pop!
Most of the cases, those software are from Ubuntu repositories… would Pop!_OS consider building their own, or as some other people mentioned, rebase on something else?
thank you
They’re spending all of their time and effort on cosmic. This is why I don’t recommend Pop_os to anyone anymore, not until cosmic is complete and released to the public.
See the code of conduct on the side. Criticism must be constructive. This is not only false, but ridiculous. Half of my hours are spent on Pop!_OS packaging and community.
Fair enough, but why is pop_os almost two full OS releases behind Ubuntu?
Why won’t you use Flatpak? That’s exactly what it’s for.
Flatpak is not Snap. Snap is the evil one.
AFAIK pop! is not aimed to be a more cutting-edge distro like fedora. It is meant to provide a stable base with the up-to-date version of the software installed by a packaging format, like flatpak, appimagr, or snap.
If you dont want to use these packages, then you will need to face the tradeoff between the stablity of the base system vs using not up-to-date apps.
