The problem here is that for that purpose, Flatpak is better in nearly every way and is far more universal
I think Snap makes the most sense for something like Ubuntu Core, where it has the unique benefit of being able to provide lower level system components (as opposed to Flatpak which is more or less just for desktop GUI apps), but it doesn’t make sense for much else over other existing solutions
because the package build script isn’t available?
What are you talking about? Every Flatpak on Flathub has their build manifest available on GitHub, you can fork or download it for yourself and change it how you’d like, just like you can with an Arch PKGBUILD
And the problem still isn’t solved because now the people who can set bad defaults still exist, they’re just different people.
For one, unlike with distro packages, lots of Flatpaks are made by the developers of their apps, so bad defaults aren’t really going to be a thing for those since the developer would want to choose what’s best for their own app
And for packages maintained by a third party, bad defaults are less common because maintainers don’t need to account for each individual distro’s unique package situation or specific dependency versions, and only have to package it once for every distro
It’s based on Silverblue instead of Workstation and has very different features, such as Waydroid set up out of the box, they also have a Steam Deck variant that more closely matches the SteamOS experience
Its the only DE with good, seamless fingerprint support for example
What do you mean? I’ve never had a problem with it on KDE, Fedora at least
Huh? It does work lol, there’s flatpak uninstall --unused --delete-data (and you can also pass --delete-data when uninstalling individual Flatpaks, to be more selective), this is just someone’s new GUI app to do the same thing, and you could already do it through KDE Discover for example
I have Fedora on an old Lenovo Chromebook, the on-by-default btrfs compression goes a long way on that 16GB eMMC
HoloISO is essentially a version of Valve’s SteamOS 3 repackaged to run on systems other than the Steam Deck, since Valve hasn’t released a general-purpose one yet
People generally use it so that they can get as close to the Steam Deck’s user experience as possible, though most people usually agree that a more standard desktop distro is a better idea unless you’re using console-like device entirely for gaming
Why do you think it would? Oracle rebranding RHEL and selling it as their own distro in direct competition with Red Hat is no doubt the biggest reason they made this change in the first place
None of those are official though, the Flatpak is the only officially supported Bottles version, and the sandboxing is one reason why they recommend using the Flatpak
