Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.
For context: I habe a PC with an 8gb SSD and I somehow need to get an app on there that only has a flatpak release
1- Those locale and icon themes will be reused with other flatpacks. And it's less than half of a gigabyte, not the 2tb claimed in the overlay text.
2- Use docker container with prowlarr instead of torrhunt. And check https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy
It's very efficient for what it does. and your programs will actually open.
People bitching about Flatpaks don't understand that they have dedupe built in. You're literally not using any more space and it's easier for app developers to deploy.
Try using Snaps sometime, if you want something to actually bitch about.
Another missed occasion to have taken a screenshot. There's gnome-screenshot, scrot, your DE's integrated tool and so many others to choose from, you can do it!
That sort of shit makes me hate the modern internet. (Also screenshots are cleaner and therefore compress better since you seem to care (rightfully) about storage space.)
Yeah but if youre using a lemmy app on your phone its significantly faster to just use your phone camera rather than having to share/transfer the file over somehow, or sign into lemmy on your pc. Im not saying you're wrong, but i get why someone wouldn't care for a quick throwaway post. Also storage then isnt an issue on the PC at all because the image is only on the phone.
Phones also have limited storage?
Regardless, posting on the desktop is exactly as hard as typing in the name of your instance and your credentials...
If you're gonna be editing a meme, typing comments and such, it's worth it very fast imo.
And crucially, it's a really basic form of respect for your audience. Oh and also framing the shot correctly, we're missing part of the text...
Yeah but their computer is what had limited storage. Most phones these days have a lot more than 8gb. Idk like i said youre not wrong but i still got what they were trying to communicate.
No problem, just makr sure your system has the exact version of libraries the application needs. And oh, you will only update those dependencies when the application update updates the requirements.
Oh what's that? Another application you want to install uses the same lib but different version? Tough luck, chump!
Seriously it's either flatpaks or the multi-version dependency management that openSUSE has, and you're not saving much more space here either.
or statically compiling literally everything then you got 50 copies of the same thing like windows & macos!
Don't your filesystem deduplicate it on the fly anyway?
I believe that's what ostree is for
So maybe use Debian and compile the app yourself instead? The Dev made something free with their time, use your time to make it work for you.
Flatpak only is a yikes, but I see the appeal Works with everyone, so is fools prove But a .deb is always welcome ;)
flatpak only on an immutable distro with podman containers is great for the dev work I do. I get all the benefits of the AUR, .deb, and zypper while keeing my machine rock solid.
