According to Door Knocker, almost half of the portals are unavailable on Ubuntu 16.04, compared to only one unavailable on Fedora 39 with GNOME, which means Flatpaks running here may have more limited capabilities than usual.

Lol like yeah that is its point and also its weakness
Weakness?
Flatpak has relatively weak sandboxing, takes up a lot more storage because sometimes dependencies get bundled a few dozen times, and most distressingly depends on the application developer to be available to do things like address supply chain attacks.
because xorg exists, not because flatpak can’t do sandboxing well
only if there’s a need to do so. identical runtimes are shared
yeah as if a rogue package maintainer can’t do the same
you are still running 7 year old code with no security updates
@nicman24 Ubuntu 16.04 ESM will have security updates till 2026
