2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Its even worse when you force Firefox to use wayland its icon doesn't even show.

    Edit: Oh since everyone now is confused; I only have the flatpak version of Firefox installed yet it doesn't use the pinned icon and doesn't even use the firefox icon under wayland at all.

    What issues do you face with Flatpak?

    [–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    first and foremost you're using flatpak

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    Yes. I do have some applications installed as flatpak. What's the problem?

    [–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

    That's the whole problem, don't use flatpak. It's the worst way of solving a problem that's already solved.

    • What problem?
    • How is it already solved?

    This comment chain feels like talking to a brick wall. It's just "don't use flatpak" over and over again but with different words.

    The problem with dependencies, that's the only reason for people to look at flatpak.

    See my other comment, and see https://flatkill.org/

    Almost all popular applications on flathub come with filesystem=host, filesystem=home or device=all permissions

    So if I checked the permissions with flatseal and that statement isn’t true for any of my flatpacks…where do we go from here?
