Fwd: Why people don't install Flatpak?

[Prabesh bhattarai]

I am sorry to be asking questions/doubts in a very rude way. It's just
Linux desktop environment is famous on the terms like opensource,
"lite-weight" and free terminologies.

This is not only my concern that Flatpak is 960mb big. Its the fact that it
is big. And many people find other alternatives. I just want you guys to be
famous, light-weight and more open about these things.

There must be some ways to make Flaphub smaller.
I will love to see that in the near future.
