{Article} Flatpak - a security nightmare - 2 years later.
-
I remain utterly disinterested in ever using Snaps OR Flatpaks... latest on the latter:
https://www.flatkill.org/2020/Higher disk & memory footprints, do not respect desktop theming, slow, not necessarily keeping up with updates, proprietary corporate store wrt the former, real security hazards with the latter & probably the former...
I feel sorry for users of frozen LTS fixed-release distros whose app packages are routinely superseded early into their 3 / 5 year period, or whose repos are small, such that the combined effect is that some of these users swallow the Snap / Flatpak propaganda & think these are their solution.
Use a roller.
