what sort of brain fog made snap and flatpak look like more appealing propositions to linux users than appimages?

@mavica_again I mean, personally, it's nice having things actually show up in the launcher and whatnot, and easy updates.

(Snap can get launched into the sun, though. But flatpak is decent IMO.)

@frost maybe it's just not compatible with ubuntu. the flatpak installer thing kept spinning and never would load for me. but graphical interfaces are so 1992, i should've tried the commandline instead, i know

@mavica_again ow! Something's borked for sure.

GUI flatpak install worked on Kubuntu last we tried, never tried mainline Ubuntu.

But I think we heard something about Canonical /actively sabotaging/ flatpaks... that was shortly before we moved to Debian so we didn't run into it ourselves.

@frost i solved my problems installing windows 10 where A/V broadcasting stuff just worked instead of having to pore over config files
