@coolbean @apophis idk man u can not like flathub. fair enough
u can even not like flatpak .
but like . this isnt something where u have no power , its not like discord or twitter where in order to be able to stop using them u need to either convince people to stop using it , or rip yourself from your social ccircle
dont wanna use flatpak ? package the thing . i promise you everyone , even flatpak users , that uses the same distro as you will thank you

this is actually a nothingburger ngl
