Its even worse when you force Firefox to use wayland its icon doesn’t even show.
Edit: Oh since everyone now is confused; I only have the flatpak version of Firefox installed yet it doesn’t use the pinned icon and doesn’t even use the firefox icon under wayland at all.
Flatpak … is still not great

What issues do you face with Flatpak?
first and foremost you’re using flatpak
Yes. I do have some applications installed as flatpak. What’s the problem?
That’s the whole problem, don’t use flatpak. It’s the worst way of solving a problem that’s already solved.
- What problem?
- How is it already solved?
This comment chain feels like talking to a brick wall. It’s just “don’t use flatpak” over and over again but with different words.
The problem with dependencies, that’s the only reason for people to look at flatpak.
See my other comment, and see https://flatkill.org/
Almost all popular applications on flathub come with filesystem=host, filesystem=home or device=all permissions
So if I checked the permissions with flatseal and that statement isn’t true for any of my flatpacks…where do we go from here?
I never intend to use a flatpak or snap, and avoid them like the plague. The whole concept is incredibly ugly to me, and wasteful of computer resources.
I don’t really understand why you would do anything other than native install unless you really, really need the performance.
Edit: 5 months later and I recognize this was a shit take.
KDE issue, not Gnome issue
