I went to install some software today (Gradia) which is only available via Flathub apparently, the install size is larger than my distro which feels like a bit much for a screenshot tool. What’s the deal with the massive size of Flatpaks and is it really worth all the extra space? 4GB per application?

    Thank you, that makes sense, I think I’ll just see how it goes without it, I don’t install a ton of applications usually and the install sizes are so large for someone who’s first computer had 64k of RAM.
