We love to praise linux constantly and tell everyone to change to it (they should) but what are your biggest annoyances ?

Mine would be, installing software (made even more complex by flatpaks being added, among the 5 other ways there already were to install software) and probably wifi power management issues.

    No, not really true, IMO.

    If all distros come together and agree on a single package format (e.g. deb), then if arch makes a package available in .deb, it can be downloaded and installed on Ubuntu or Fedora, as it becomes an universal package format like flatpak.

    Currently we have to compile the source code in such situations.

      If flatpak is universal doesn’t it solve the issue ? Is it the sandboxing people dont like?

      My system is a mix of .Deb, manual compiled, and flatpaks. As im sure many are. Im not an organized person.

        Yep, it’s sandboxing that I don’t like. They feel “tacked on” and don’t integrate properly.

        Same for my system which is also a mix of deb, flatpak and Snap.

        The main complain of flatpak being size and performance in comparison to ‘native’ installations.
