Installing the Policy JSON Configuration for Brave Flatpak on Bazzite
Hello, I have a problem regarding Brave Flatpak on Bazzite.
Today I discovered the existence of the Policy feature
brave://policy that allows to get rid of bloated features in Brave, and I have the json configuration that get rids of the bloats on Linux Flatpak version of Brave.
However, the main problem is that currently Brave only reads directory /etc/brave/policies/managed which means I cannot install this with Bazzite since this is an immutable distro (There is already a way to overwrite the /etc/ folder temporarily but you know that way is discouraged)
Is there any way to make Flatpak Brave read the custom policy file /etc/brave/policies/managed but in a local way?Solution:Jump to solution

/etc is writable you just need sudo
Really? I thought it is marked as read only
/var and /etc is rw
/usr/local is a symlink to /var/usrlocal
rest is readonly
/home is also symlink to /var/home
