In a surprise move, Ubuntu developers have agreed to stop shipping Flatpak, preinstalled Flatpak apps, and any plugins needed to install Flatpak apps through a GUI software tool in the default package set across all eight of Ubuntu’s official flavors, as of the upcoming Ubuntu 23.04 release.
Yup. S76 drew a pretty clear line in the sand when they went all in on Flatpak. I’m glad some derivatives have the backbone to not back Canonical’s decision making.
