    I’ve been installing all my software on Ubuntu using the flatpaks because they are mostly up to date. They definitely have there downsides. I keep trying to save renders in blender and exports from draktable in my /tmp/ folder but it doesn’t work right because of the isolation. Also running those programs from the command line or trying to run scrips included with darktable is a real pain in the butt.

      Is there any particular reason you use flatpaks rather than snaps? (Not that I’m suggesting using snaps, I myself prefer flatpak, just curious)

        I said ubuntu but I’m actually mostly running pop-os and the pop shop installed them as flatpak. I’ve been switching between the two alot lately.

          Ah alright, that makes more sense. I ran Pop-OS for a while, and a few other distros since then, but keep coming back to Fedora
