they are extra heavy in disk space
While they use more disk space than most native packages, this point is often exaggerated. Flatpak uses deduplication and shared runtimes if multiple apps use the same runtime.
Common libraries like OpenSSL are usually bundled in runtimes. So if my application uses e.g.
org.gnome.Platform
, I don’t have to update my application if there is a fix in a library of that runtime, I just need to update the runtime.The runtime is also shared by all applications that use this runtime.
The steam flatpak can’t install udev rules. It works if you install a packacke such as
steam-devices
on your host system. See https://github.com/flathub/com.valvesoftware.Steam/wiki#my-controller-isnt-being-detected

What should be shown if there is currently no playback?
The documentation says:
Waydroid uses Linux namespaces (user, pid, uts, net, mount, ipc) to run a full Android system in a container and provide Android applications on any GNU/Linux-based platform.
To my understanding this isn’t even emulation but regular container technology.
Will have to switch back to X.Org until this is fixed by the Wayland/XWayland developers
This isn’t the responsibility of “wayland developers”. The developers of an application need to adapt to the new API.

There seems to be misunderstanding about what Wayland is.
Wayland is set of protocols. They are implemented by wayland servers (compositors) and wayland clients (applications) themselves. There is no single “wayland binary” like in the X11 days. Servers or clients may choose to implement or not implement a specific protocol.
You don’t even need to create aliases yourself. Flatpak creates wrapper scripts for every app that you install. Just symlink them into your PATH.
ln -s /var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/org.example.CliTool ~/.local/bin/cli-tool
or if you are using a user remote
ln -s ~/.local/share/flatpak/exports/bin/org.example.CliTool ~/.local/bin/cli-tool
(Note: some lemmy clients render the the tilde in code blocks incorrectly)
Snaps are just as “open source” as “Office Open XML” (.docx, .pptx etc.) are open file formats.
If there isn’t a fully open source software stack, it isn’t really open source.
Moving something to the trash files folder isn’t the correct way to trash it, since the Trash specification requires storing some metadata for each trash item.
You should use eg.
trash-cli
instead.
