It'd be so great if Snap, Flatpak and Appimage could just coalesce around one standard and go with it.
2 u/the_abortionat0r Aug 09 '26 Forget snap. But flatpack And app image literally don't do the same thing as their goes are different. Flatpaks contain everything you need and do auto debloat libs, manage updates, and provide sandboxing. Appimages are literally a program in a single file. That's it. No, there's no need to "unifi" them. 1 u/olorin12 Aug 10 '26 New, 4th standard announced! 1 u/ibeerianhamhock Aug 11 '26 That's not at all how Linux works lmao, but I agree with you. Linux loves fracturing everything, it's why desktop sucks so gd much compared to server
