- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

If flatpak didn't make me put the entirety of KDE onto my system (thats an exaggeration but you know what I mean) I'd gladly crown it king of the package managers.
Plus make it hell on earth to a) access drives other than the one flatpak is installed on, b) interoperate with non-flatpak applications, and c) retain any amount of free space on my drives (exaggeration for effect).
Yeah, flatseal should come stock with flatpak IMO. You will have to configure many apps to get them to play nice with your system.
This is a "security" feature and I'm so tired of it. Same thing with Wayland, random crap doesn't work sometimes
Wayland is trying to replace a standard that people have been saying is obsolete for a decade. I'll give them a bit of leeway.
I just want to point out the dependencies of Konsole (arguably a small and simple application in concept):
glibc gcc-libs icu kbookmarks kcolorscheme kconfig kconfigwidgets kcoreaddons kcrash kdbusaddons kglobalaccel kguiaddons ki18n kiconthemes kio knewstuff knotifications knotifyconfig kparts kpty kservice ktextwidgets kwidgetsaddons kwindowsystem kxmlgui qt6-5compat qt6-base qt6-multimedia sh.Psst .. the first KDE app you installed via your package manager also put "the entirety of KDE" onto your system.
i don't think I use any kde apps on my system at all
At least if you install other apps you already have KDE. If you install another Flatpak, it's likely this will need another version of the KDE runtime, so it's 2.5 more GB for a 450kB application.
Indeed. As much of how loved and popular KDE is, fuck it. I use the glorious XFCE. XFCE is beautiful too. Fuck, I'm not the maniac who would waste 2GB just for my DE to look beautiful.
Flatpak does not install KDE by default. It is only required if you install a KDE app. You can hardly blame it if you do that.
