I think the solution is bigger pockets.
I can easily fit my 6.43 inches phone on my pockets, but that might not be true with women clothes.
Unless you want to have a tablet size screen in your pocket. Then I can see why foldable screens would be appealing
I think that only happens when you don't use windows for many months, which might be true for Linux users
That used to be true a few years ago, but now games just works without any tinkering from my experience. Except some online games due to kernel level anti cheats (like Fortnite and Valorant), but I prefer single player games anyway
I agree. That's what I learn when I was in school. We also had to identify objective and subjective texts
You're correct, but just like you said, many applications need that.
If I install LibreOffice on Windows or Android, it'll also have access to all my files. I really don't see how that makes Linux more insecure.
Sure, ideally it would use portals, I just don't like the attitude of the blog post.
Addressing concerns or areas for improvement, and suggesting users solutions like installing Flatseal, would be far more constructive. Even better would be submitting pull requests to enhance security themselves, since they seem to know so much about it. Instead, they're just spreading FUD and complaining about small problems or nonsensical arguments like Windows adopting rust. Since when Rust is more used on Windows than Linux?
For instance, the blog post mentions Xorg's security concerns but overlooks mentioning Xorg's alternative Wayland, the default in most distributions when using KDE Plasma or Gnome, which are also the most used.
If security is so important, there are distros like Qubes OS, but most users don't need that level of paranoia, specially if it ruins workflow, performance and productivity
As far as I know, the only possible way to escape the sandbox is to use flatpak-spawn --host and add --talk-name=org.freedesktop.Flatpak but I only ever seen that on apps like vscode.
Imo, the point of flatpak's sandbox is to give an extra layer of protection in case of security vulnerabilities. Permissions exist so apps can still work as they're supposed to. It's not a virtual machine isolated from the rest of the system where you can or should install malware.
Besides, the manifest is public and needs to be approved to be on the default repository.
Even if a flatpak app has full access to host, they can't read the private data of other flatpak apps (~/.var).
He looks like a very wise cat
Just because it's more modern doesn't mean it's a 1:1 replacement.
Wired is cheaper, and it has better quality, but it can also be annoying if you're doing sports.
It's the same for HD and SSD. I still prefer HD to store multimedia and backups, despite being slower and older than SSD.
There is no reason for them not to coexist.
Or this if you use F-droid.
It's based on Firefox and allows you to install addons without using the Nightly version
Yes. You can read about it here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/technical-information/#filesystem-layout
