I don't like how many of these are closed source, but still, here are some time stamps. The ones where I put (?) are ones I don't know about. 0:00 Intro 0:47 15. Photopea (?) 2:06 14.

Thanks. The whole point of my switching to Linux (Fedora) was for the open source community and apps.

No matter how many times I see it, It inspires me more and more.

Thank you. You always provide the means not just tell us about it. It is hard when you spent all your life with windows, Linux is much more difficult, I love your videos.

Flatpak is the next gen universal package for Linux distributions. But it lacks some features like integrating one app with other . Say for example FDM(Free download manager) doesn't works with Brave Flatpak having the FDM extension while downloading

@hotrodjones74

Flatpak's best usecase is for the proprietary apps we can't avoid. Like MS Teams, Skype or Zoom. FOSS is preferred but we all have a few proprietary apps we need to use for practical reasons.

I like video's like this, always helps when I don't know what to look for. I use LMDE5 and the only things I don't use that is on Flatpack but I just install for the normal version is VLC, FireFox and Steam, for some reason they don't work as well or at all via Flatpack version.

Nice video :) helpfull

One to add to your list; Pithos. This is a "radio" client for Pandora that is lighter than the web interface.

Thank you very much!

I use some of these applications. My favourites are Steam, Discord, and VS Code.

I cannot express how well photopea works. I despise Adobe Illustrator and it is nice to be able to quickly convert..AI to SVG.

Which Linux distro you are using it?

how about a vscode vs vscodium video?

I'm a new Linux Mint user, so if a program isn't already contained in the 'Software Manager' I can't install it. For example, I want to install Gimp 2.8 (an older version) and I've downloaded the flatpak for it to my downloads folder, but I've got no idea how to install it. How do we install flatpaks that we've already downloaded?

@Caved111

Ай бұрын

I dunno Mint but its usually goes like this: install flatpack itself from the official repo then run it in a terminal and it will show you how you can install 1 locally. There is also a hub on the internet on wich you can just click a package wich will then install provided you already have FP installed from repo. Someone can correct me if i am wrong but this is my understanding.

It's just a universal package management for all Linux distributions. Other than the native package management Nike apt , dpkg, or .deb binary ( for debian based distros ) , and .rpm binaries and dnf for rhel based distros.

They say Flatpak is more secure because it runs independently in somekind of sandbox. Downside to it that it takes more space because it downloads all libraries. But I've heard more Flatpaks you get it's better because Flatpaks share those libraries between each other. They also say that Flatpak often brings you more up to date version of app you're getting. But unfortunatley for Flatpaks to be fully secure you need to manage them though Flatseal, app who lists all of you flatpaks and manage their permissions. This is all what I've found out about Flatpaks. And I'm new to Linux. I've installed Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon this Fall.

yeah yeah...one app usually needs 1GB of our storage too.. great..

apparently you've never went and actually searched how much space ... TOTAL ( all extensions, extra dll files.. etc) space your normal Software manager repo apps in Linux take up after the intitial install. big damn hint.. LibreOffice takes up more than just what Software manager NON flathub app claims it does... as in the coherent enough gdebi installer based application that is. flatpak just packages all of it into one deal..that's why and includes the updater database within the application. what are you trying to run on...a freaking 120GB storage drive from 20 years ago?
