Sometimes you're so tired you write #Flatpak as flaptka. When that happens, it's probably a good time to go to bed...
Desde hace poco, en #flatpak, cualquier aplicación que use #WebKitGTK no va funcionar si usas #NVIDIA y #Wayland (con X11 no lo sé). Hay que desactivar el DMA-BUF con esta variable de entorno: WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1
Roll-It 3.3.0 out now
Changes are mainly just the UI refresh for this release, but those new libadwaita widgets are pretty nice
Well this has just completely devolved into figuring out how to re-package #Windows games into #Flatpak s or #AppImage s for the sake of #portability

Pues llegó #Gnome 45. En flatpak su tiempo de ejecución ya está. La primera aplicación en ponerse al día por #flatpak ha sido #Loupe. En #Archlinux llegará con la versión 45.1. Un mesecito nos queda.
Boost willkommen :neocat_sign_thx:
Kleine Info noch:
Die App S3Drive gibt's jetzt auch im Flathub :neocat_sign_yip:
https://flathub.org/apps/io.kapsa.drive
Desweiteren steht ein Appimage und DEB Paket per GitHub bereit.
https://github.com/s3drive/app
Im Microsoft Store ist es schon länger vertreten, eine Exe findet sich aber auch bei GitHub, genau wie die Mac Version.

Want a way to quickly plot some equations, or a way to easily visualize some data? Graphs lets you do both, and more. Pan, zoom, scale and transform your data, even perform mathematical operations on it! Pick the colors of your lines, the labels on your axis and the title for the graph itself. Then, hide the sidebar to present your data, or export it as an SVG for future editing
You can get the app on Flathub here: https://flathub.org/apps/se.sjoerd.Graphs




Howling Moon Software's first game release was Crayon Ball. I recently found the code for it, open sourced it, and put it up on Flathub. Some fun memories reading my 15 year old (Ruby!) code where I thought scene graphs were still a good idea. >_<
(P.S. It will run on a 64 bit Raspberry Pi too!)

@shabbir1 Yes. As a user, Flatpak gives me peace of mind about apps not affecting my system more than they need to, and using portals and proper APIs instead of messing directly with my system. As a developer, Flatpak gives me a predictable target to develop apps for, and the ability to quickly distribute my work to a wide audience through Flathub.

@obsidianmd Make sure you all update Obsidian to 1.4.13. It fixes a critical bug.
#Linux #Flatpak users - the update just came through for me, so you should be able to run `flatpak update` to get it.
I spent the day making a guide to manage #flatpak programs in #QubesOS templates :flan_popcorn:
This includes some nice stuff:
- use GNOME Software to add/remove programs
- notification when flatpak programs have to be updated, and offer a GUI to update
- application list synchronization when flatpak programs are added/removed
This took me like 10 hours of work to figure it all... :flan_calm:
The guide will be available soon to everyone, it's currently only for my patreon sponsors, one needs to eat some cookies for a living :blobnomcookie:

Okay, #Fedora #Silverblue #FedoraSilverblue.
I installed it on my children's laptops (both 12yo) and configured the parental controls to deny them the _installation_ of applications. This results in many, many requests for my password on _updates_ of applications (we're talking #flatpak here). According to them, that's highly annoying. I agree. How can I set it up so updates work without additional authentication? 1/3
Since my replies are full of people missing the point (it's like a two-second meme is not nuanced!):
Of course I don't think #Flatpak, #Flathub, #FreeDesktop, etc. are evil. 😂
But we should be happy to use #SteamDeck as a way to get the cool stuff we're working on into the hands of millions of new folks. And we should be happy to use it as an example when talking to app developers we want to support #Linux.
Perhaps this is an alternative interpretation.

Do we have an implementation or even plan for apps on Linux to handle URL ownership? E.g. if I have a Flathub link and my app store has a Flathub remote, it would be neat to just pop me into the native app store. Or if I have a link out to matrix.to, it would be nice to just open it in my chat app directly.
I know we can do protocol-level stuff like apstream:// but I mean Android- and iOS-style link handling.
In fact, do other desktop platforms even do this?
I'll keep saying it, because it keeps coming up. If you're working in the FreeDesktop, Linux, or Flatpak spaces, you *need* to understand this, even if you don't personally care about gaming or Steam Deck.

Want to see #Electron apps on #Linux support autostart in a standard way like macOS and Windows, without developers having to write Linux-specific code?
We can make it happen! Linux uses Portals which abstract away the details and can be implemented in frameworks like Electron to be used the same way as on other platforms.
Any Electron app on Linux (like Discord, Bitwarden, Slack, etc.) would benefit from this work, whether running as a #Flatpak or not.
Give this a 👍 https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/32388
Other interesting facts:
- Bitwarden has over 700k installs from Flathub even though it's not yet verified
- Steam Deck is shipping Flathub as the default desktop app store to millions of people
- Devices, OSes, distros, and users can choose to filter their app store to only show verified apps
It just makes sense to get it verified, especially since it's coming from the official releases, anyway!
Do you use #Bitwarden? Do you also use #Linux or #SteamDeck?
The #Flatpak is a community effort, automated from the official release. That feels a bit off for your password manager; the thing that holds all your secrets.
A community post from 2021 asking them to maintain it only got 211 votes, 117 likes, and 46 comments but over 10k views. I and other #OpenSource folks commented and said we'd be happy to help, but never heard back.
Maybe give the post some attention?
A new version of my little weather app Nimbus is available on #AppCenter and to download as a #Flatpak ref! It now shows wind speed, visibility, and pressure. Check it out https://appcenter.elementary.io/io.github.danirabbit.nimbus/
Pipeline gives you a feed of all your favorite YouTube and PeerTube channels. Just add them in subscriptions, set filters if you want, and browse! The app supports saving videos to a watch later tab, or opening them in a separate program for download or streaming. Set these in it's preferences and you have an all-in-one video solution!

That's not quite true either 😉️: everyone forgets Visual Studio Code

I recorded a part 2, finished up editing the day’s talks into individual videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2uhSYQIqEw
Impromptu streaming attempt! Gonna edit some GUADEC videos and test out my streaming setup…
Great article on @derStandard about #Flatpak (in German but translates well)
“Flatpak: The best thing that's happened to the Linux desktop in a long time”
A new version of #Fretboard is out! This update brings support for viewing chord variants, bookmarking, smarter chord detection, and more! Download it from #Flathub: https://flatpak.app/fretboard
Since I’ve owned the https://flatpak.app domain for like six months, now, I decided to put it to use as an experiment…
You can now use it to link directly to apps or perform a search! As a start, I took a handful of the most popular apps to give them commonly-used shortnames; things like `firefox` or `steam`. An RDNN (like com.cassidyjames.plausible) will link directly to that Flathub page, and anything else will search Flathub.
Give it a try: https://flatpak.app/firefox
Accent colors are now a standard preference for Linux!
And endorsed by #GNOME, #KDE, #CosmicDE, #ElementaryOS, and #Budgie, at that!
I’m gonna dip my toes into volunteering as a Flatpak/Flathub developer advocate—basically, providing a human contact at a real company that can help larger apps/companies get their apps in front of Linux (and thus Steam Deck!) users.
What are some of the biggest apps you think are missing from Flathub—or for apps already there, which are the ones you’d like to see verified?
TIL LibreOffice has smooth 1:1 zooming with the trackpad, apparently new in the 7.6 update! 🎉
I don’t use it often, but that’s a great improvement. :)
@blacklight What would make you say that nobody liked snaps?
I am using #Debian on the desktop. As far as I am concerned, that's a great option not least because #flatpak and #snap packages are available.
Big thank you to the team maintaining the #Nextcloud snap, running flawlessly on a Ubuntu server near me for the past five years!
I honestly don't get it. If you really dislike snaps and #Ubuntu includes snaps, it should be very straightforward: use something else and tell us about that…
GNOME 45 beta released 🤩
For testers / curious, there is an installer ready to be used with GNOME Boxes :gnome:
For app developers, the new runtime/sdk is already available on Flathub. :flatpak:

Video Trimmer, the aptly named app to trim videos. It appears to do so losslessly and it is FAST.

Parabolic, an app to download videos (please only use for content you have rights to, of course!):
If you're looking for new apps to try, here are four Flathub flatpaks you may want to check out!

Cavalier has more audio visualiser options than you could know what to do with! Play anything on your desktop and watch as the app's waves and bars move in sync with the sound. Pick from 6 drawing modes, then select the visualiser's colors, drawing direction and even choose if you want it wrapped around a in a circle. Cavalier really lets you feel your music!

Which I think is kinda bad, as I personally Think that #Ubuntu's model is a far more friendlier approach.
Shure, #Canonical's obsession with #Snap and #Flatpak - Ban is stupid at best but I do think they have a better offering...
@thelinuxEXP This was a REALLY useful guide to #Flatpak! I learned quite a bit. Thanks!
