How do you feel about Flatpak? Do you like having universal packages separated from the operating system, or do you regret how much space they take? (piefed.zip)

Personally I like them when they work well enough for my needs

I don't mind the space issues, but sometimes they still have odd quirks. They keep getting better though :)

But I don't have any issues with native packages so I often choose them when available. Lots of the time I don't really pay attention and just grab whatever's in the software store and use that until I have a problem lol
