    While I don’t think flatpak shouldn’t replace traditional packages, I still like it.

    Flatpak apps just work most of the time, they work without issues and are often very up to date. The sandboxing does have benefits because no apps interfere with it, the problem is that it doesn’t work super well with other apps, sometimes the theming is off, and it doesn’t work well with other apps, installing apps takes much longer, and it isn’t as easily started from the command line.

    Edit: typo

    I have never had to worry about wifi drivers, and my microphone has always worked out of the box with my computer.

    Proprietary nvidia drivers are a bit trickier, but mostly painless.

    Printers work flawlessly for me, I have a modern cheap hp printer, so I had low expectations, but my laptop running mint can print and scan with the built in applications.

    sure, but there are so many commands that are absolute godsends. one of my favourites is the c command. I can just write ct" and change all the text up to the next speech mark. and if you dislike some of the binds, make your own! (n)vi(m) is super customisable.

    just because it’s not familiar doesn’t mean it’s bad.
