How does it stack up against traditional package management and others like AUR and Nix?

    I think Flatpaks are great for applications like Firefox, Steam, etc. where dependencies or delay in package distribution due to building multiple versions can be a problem.

    However, there are many situations where Flatpak’s sandbox can be more detriment than helpful, if the application wasn’t developed with that in mind. It’s not a silver bullet for everything.
