     @kaia yes, that's how it works. And even then some things might be broken, gg. I dislike flatpak so I run nixOS.

     It has the potential to gain efficiency as more flatpaks are installed tho.

     @kaia This lack of efficiency should really have your inner German trying to get out through your chest

     @kaia@brotka.st Yes
     That's how flatpak works and it will do that for every package

     @SrEstegosaurio @sullybiker @kaia at least you get great benefits in exchange: for example, gtk theming not working, dodgy clipboard, problems with file access,

     @piggo @kaia @SrEstegosaurio I have had pretty good luck with flatpak, much less so with snaps which are appropriately named in that they break

     @kaia@brotka.st not really it's just some common libraries
     
     That's like a quarter of an OS at most
