And how do You install a flatpak? Like after downloading it?

Ooxeleis And how do You install a flatpak? Like after downloading it?

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:32 AM

double click

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:32 AM

or, download from software/discover if it's on flathub

Ripps•6/10/24, 2:32 AM

appimage works in a pinch, but flatpak is preferable

halva•6/10/24, 2:33 AM

usually you get them from flathub, but in this case just download it and double click

KKyle Gospo double click

oxeleisOP•6/10/24, 2:33 AM

Really? That easy? Amazing

RRipps appimage works in a pinch, but flatpak is preferable

halva•6/10/24, 2:33 AM

yeah as long as there are no glibc issues, you're not using wayland and there's libfuse2 present

halva•6/10/24, 2:33 AM

appimages are somehow tarballs but like
worse at this point lol

appimage doesnt like wayland? atleast mine works well tho

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/10/24, 2:34 AM

appimages fundamentally are flawed, i agree, but i think if it runs i'd prefer it over tarballs personally lol

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/10/24, 2:34 AM

i still try to avoid appimage when possible myself

Ripps•6/10/24, 2:34 AM

halva•6/10/24, 2:35 AM

probono explicitly refuses to do anything whenever appimage is borked over wayland

halva•6/10/24, 2:35 AM

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:36 AM

and run stuff with unstable mesa

Hhalva he's *a bit of a character*

asen23•6/10/24, 2:36 AM

tulip•6/10/24, 2:37 AM

i really reeeally dont get why use an appimage at all? you can totally jsut run bwrap and mount stuff dynamically just like flatpak does, instead of doing all the weird ass appimage things

Probono, creator of AppImage, in an attempt to get AppImage support, is banned from the OBS Studio organization on GitHub after downright rude comments and accuses them of supporting Flatpak because of the bounty offered by RH. "In any event, please do not bother our project anymore"

asen23•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

i think should bug some of my appimage dev to create flatpak lol

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

on the real @tulip i think the reason we explicitly kind of support appimage here because bazzite was originally intended for the steam deck, and some applications there use the appimage format, or something like emudeck installs certain emulators as appimage vs flatpak for some reason

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

this is it

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

only reason we do it

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

some common deck software is only distributed as an appimage

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

so we support it

Ripps•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

I've stopped caring about people complaining about wayland. If you have so much opinions about how a display sever should be, then make one yourself

And how do You install a flatpak? Like after downloading it?
