KDE Plasma Leaning Towards Focusing On Flatpak Over AppImage/Snaps

[pal666]

Do you still need to run the Flatpak packages with flatpak run though?

no, you are free to hide it in script/shortcut

[pal666]

Minix -> Linux

there is no -> between minix and linux

[pal666]

Is the code truly free if it comes with limitations about what can you do with it?

yes, if it does not allow you to make it nonfree

[Nille]

How is it about the Sandboxing? Can Snappy now use SELinux? Or it is still limited to AppArmor?

[Awesomeness]

In what ways is Flatpak more advance?

and as far as I know you don't need to use Ubuntu's store to use Snappy, it's just the default.

Snap is a single distribution solution that only works with Debian and derivatives.

Snap is a single distribution solution that only works with Debian and derivatives.

This is simply an out and out unfact. It is not a Canonical-only project, its driven by a distro-agnostic technical board and is available on all kinds of distros, including but not limited to Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, SuSe, and yes Ubuntu and derivatives. You do not need to use Ubuntu or have anything to do with Canonical to use it, although Canonical is actively contributing to it and using it on Ubuntu and providing a store to that end. The code is free and available on GitHub.

I think you need to start giving citations for your alternate truths.

I already posted https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comme...ter_canonical/ that investigated the state of Snap under various distributions. Learn to read, idiot.

Perhaps you should link to something that conveys useful information if you want to back up an argument, not a dead link on a social media opinion board. All of the links I gave lead to actual original sources that back up each of my assertions. I think readers here are competent to judge for themselves who may be the bigger idiot.

Lets say for a moment flatpak has now advantages if it has no REAL disadvantages, why do people here care so much.

Is it now that you have to use canonical stuff the default approach?

Then I guess Wayland project should stopp its effort because there is mir which is more or less a 1 to one clone but its under the roof of canonical.
