Yeah, would much rather a package designed for my distro than a flatpak.
I recall a time where the native package on my distro wasn’t working at all, I think this was when I was using discord and tried to use Vencord on Debian 12, so I tried the flatpak version and again it did not work. I was between a rock and a hard place, do I troubleshoot what is essentially a containerized/sandboxed application or try to figure out what’s going on my host machine.
I chose the latter and eventually got it working, but now I don’t use discord so waste of my time regardless.
if properly implemented, it shouldn’t matter. much the same way android apks works in pretty much any android “distro”, despite a few snags on the more aggressive manufacturer roms.
No, Flatpak limitations literally make it impossible to get all Discord features working.
It’s not a problem with the config, it’s a design flaw of Flatpak itself.
this is why we are moving to packaging like flatpak.

then it’s not properly implemented yet, on either side.
i’m curious as to which ones though, what can’t you do? i have everything working.
Or this is why we are moving to a rolling-release model.
Or this is why I’m rolling over.
