    that is very interesting, however, why can’t that be done wth flatpak?

      That’s pretty fundamentally not how flatpak works. It could theoretically be modified to do all of that, but by that point you’re recreating snapd and it would likely be easier and more straightforward to start with the current snapd and change what you dislike about it.

        the problem with snap is that it’s proprietary, which really can’t be changed, and while i’m sure it would be a lot of work, what kind of work would need to be done, is really what i’m curious about.
