    Glad you asked

    • more secure than regular install
    • less clutter
    • no dependency hell
    • open source (in opposition to snap)

      That was my guess, from others’ context. Hits almost all of the good points.

      How containerized though? Could it be a replacement for a docker server “farm” on a single machine or is it know for apps to simply use locally?

        Good question. Docker can be used for orchestration which I‘m pretty sure is a lot more than flatpak is designed for. So if this interests you (I‘m fine with docker) feel free to try it out and update me.
