    My point was that flatpaks don’t have a mechanism for updating, unless the developer builds an updater service into the program, like apps do in Windows.

    Freudian slip eh.

    That isn’t the amount of space it’s using. This has been explained to you. Stop intentionally misleading people.

    Alright, you were right, flatpaks don’t use 6GIB for 6 applications, I am very sorry, they use 4 GIB KEK.

    ~/ ./flatpak-dedup-checker
    Directories:                /var/lib/flatpak/{runtime,app}
    Size without deduplication: 5.70 GB
    Size with deduplication:    4.03 GB (70% of 5.70 GB)

      Freudian slip eh.

      You clearly don’t know what that means. Since Flatpaks do have a mechanism for updating, that statement cannot be a Freudian slip.

      A Freudian slip essentially means revealing secret thoughts or feelings through misspeaking, it doesn’t just mean parsing a sentence wrong. It’s not my secret thought that Flatpaks actually can’t update and any updates pushed to them have actually been a collective hallucination of everybody who uses them.

      Now are you going to address the actual point that I was making? Of course not.

      Alright, you were right, flatpaks don’t use 6GIB for 6 applications, I am very sorry, they use 4 GIB KEK.

      Again with the lies.

      I have 61 flatpaks installed and it totals under 5GiB. HuR dUr FiRefOx fLatPaK usEs 3GiB

        Why are you so mad lmao.

        Flatpak is just a bloated mess, even with deduplication (Gimp increased the size to 4.8 GiB sorry 4.79GIB since I don’t want to mislead people):

        Again with the lies.

        Bro, that is the size of my entire distro with the appimages included (and it also includes the home files), So yeah it is really bad kek.

        Also, here what it actually uses with the suggested tool:

        THAT’S STILL VERY TERRIBLE and more than what 15 appimages use wtf.

              Mate, you’re spreading misinformation about a packaging format and going on all-caps rages about how great the one you use is.

              You’re projecting so hard that I’m considering calling you IMAX.

                Might wanna improve the reading skills there, because I even mentioned here that appimages suck because the runtime doesn’t statically link glibc and that would improve their compatibility to 100% if they did (would work on musl distros).

                going on all-caps rages

                Yeah I can’t take blatantl lies like those that say that appimages bloat the system while promoting flatpaks, and I’ve already shared you enough info showing that is utterly false.

                I’m considering calling you IMAX.

                You’re funny lol.
