Yep, that’s how they work on my T440. It’s quite convenient even if I don’t trust them to stay in at times (one managed to fall out already)
Weird, the software manager (using LM 21.3) reports 1.1GB dl, 2.4GB installed (which is different from when i checked yesterday for some reason?).
flatpak install
reports around 2.1GB of dependencies and the package itself at just 1.3MB
EDIT: nvm im stupid, the other reply explains the discrepancy
It CAN get pretty wild sometimes, though. For example, Flameshot (screenshotting utility) is only ~560KB as a system package, while its flatpak version is ~1.4GB (almost 2.5k times as big)
For the past few years, I just install the latest stable version of anything I use and never bother touching or tweaking anything … never had a problem since.
And that’s exactly how I’m trying to approach everything after the reinstall. I like tinkering with my system, but after a couple months it really starts messing with everything.
It’s funny seeing this like literally a couple days after I decided it would be easier to reinstall my Mint sysyem than to fix the audio issues Pipewire was causing. I’m back on PulseAudio and haven’t had issues since.
Oh damn, I didn’t even realise how capable Orage was. Thanks a lot!
Seems solid, I’ll check it out, thanks!
Good point, though I don’t remember Linux Mint’s XFCE calendar being able to set up events. I’ll make sure when I get back home
Linux Mint install one of the hull it on the way do i dont trust them om
