@itsfoss I miss synaptic package manager, way better than snap imho

Synaptic's great. I still use it, but was disappointed to see it's not available in Fedora.

IMO flatpak is all you need. I've come to the conclusion that immutable systems are the future for consumers.

@metaend Flatpaks are nice tbh. But, don't they have these hundred different dependencies? Like those you see when running flatpak list command?

@kwayk42 yeah
