  • Flatpak is very useful for a lot of things, but i really dont think it should be the default. It still has some weird issues. For example if you run a seperate home and root partition flatpak by default will install things into your root partition which quickly fills up. You have to go in and do a bunch of work to get it to use the home partition.

    Or for example issues with themeing and cursors. Its a pretty common issue for flatpaks to not properly detect your cursor theme and just use the default until you mess around with perms and settings to fix it.

    They also generally get updates slower. I guess maybe if its adopted more that would change but flatpak is already pretty widely used and thats still an issue. Especially for smaller programs not used by as many people.

    Keeping it as just something that is good to use for the ones who like a GUI experience and want something simple and easy is great. But if we were to start doing like what ubuntu does with snaps where theyll just replace things you install with the snap version then im not in favor of that at all.






  • I saw you comment that your thinking of hosting a minecraft server on it. Just FYI your going to need access to the router for port forwarding to let the minecraft server be accessible to anyone not on your LAN. Which i saw you may not have in another comment. As for actually controlling them just ssh into the server from the other one.

    If you really want to do a server that other people can join and cant use port forwarding you may be able to get it to work with a VPN like hamachi and get your friends all on that. But ive never done that with an actual server just used it for LAN games so im not sure it would work. Id think it should but cant say.
