One huge thing I don't understand about Flatpak is how, like the article says, everything is shoved into GitHub. Why? What is the rationale behind making each application its own repository just to store a couple modules and a YAML file?
I do like Flatpak though. It works for what I use it for, and it does a good job at keeping the applications I install through it separate from my system, so I can be sure that my package manager isn't going to brick everything with an update (not like that has ever happened though).
That’s very nice to hear. So it’ll be easy to get up and running with Cosmic even if I’m on a different distribution?
