*Here, you can dive deeper and deeper in flatpak, just try the cool applications on flatpak..

Of course it affects your storage, because this is installed on internal storage..

only this flatpak contains applications that have been optimized for linux bro.. so for the application database on flathub, you can use it to learn some application applications, try installing it... , because we can easily uninstall it :)

If it's suitable, you can use it to find the version of the appimage... if it's there, you can move it..

So you can uninstall the ones on the internal storage... hehe.




I hope this discussion is useful, friend, you can save the video on your YouTube, so that if you need it, it can be done quickly.

Also, this timestamp has not been made, so if by chance you or I forget, you can open it again and go straight to the material.. :)
