Flathub aims to be the place to get and distribute apps for Linux. It is powered by Flatpak which allows Flathub apps to run on almost any Linux distribution.

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

    It can but is cumbersome.

    flatpak-spawn —host /bin/gedit

    Will run local gedit from a flatpak.

      Interesting, thank you. I’m definitely running into trouble for things like shells, but it works okay.
