    Yeah, Proton is awesome, that’s for sure. Now, being a “security and privacy” company, it blows my mind that they put so much effort on making apps for Windows and Mac first, leaving Linux behind, and when they finally get to it, they just dump in a glorified PWA. This world is really weird 🤣🤣

      And that they decided to go with RPM and DEB instead of just doing a Flatpak

        I prefer rpm over flatpak. at least I know any os dependency updates are happening regularly, flatpak may not get weekly dependency updates from proton

          Its kinda annoying for anyone not on debian or fedora (and derivatives) though.

            I’m on OpenSuse which will take a Fedora RPM, and most will take deb, if they don’t you can uae the alien tool to convert it for your OS…extra steps which sucks
