For at least a week now, the flatpak site, "org.freedesktop.Platform," freezes
up when I click, "Y."
I have no idea what this means, other than some of my flatpaks are not updating.
My personal experience with flatpaks has been bittersweet.
I would not recommend them, nor snaps, nor appimage to first-time Linux
users. There are numerous reasons for that, which I would think you all would
know far more than I would.
I would not really recommend them to anyone on a wi-fi signal, unless you have some
100 Mbps wi-fi, that is reliable.
I can't speak for the super Linux nerds, but I would think they would not be crazy about
having all your additional software as flatpaks, but I would be curious what their opinions
are on that.
I have notices some strange behaviour with flatpaks. In a simple game like Aisleriot Solitaire,
I have noticed it performs differently, or maybe more poorly. I have already forgotten, but there
were something annoying that may have caused me to just install it natively, as I play a game
of FreeCell at least once per day. [ Sidenote: My obsession with that is likely left over addiction
from W&*%&$! 95, probably. I guess by now, I have played 10,000 games of FreeCell.
( I wonder if in another dimension of time and space, Bill G8%%$ put Mahjonng on W&*%&$! 95,
instead, and there is another me out there who is addicted to Mahjonng.
( Only played about 200 times ). ]
Do you all know the reason that MS Pinball was not included in Windows XP ? They lost
it. They could not find it. Some geek tried to port it or something a few years ago, and there is video on
YouTube on how to install it. I personally think the pinball games from Windows were one
of the coolest things about Windows, back in the 90's. I do not care for the free pinball games,
although there are some good ones on the web. I have not even played real pinball in 20 plus
years.
