I’m talking about things like “python3-blabla” and “libsomething”. How bad would it be if nobody used these library-packages and everyone just added all kinds of libraries as part of an application’s package?

    In my experience Arch is pretty unstable, though. I’ve never had an Arch installation that didnt break by the end of the month. Flatpaks allow me to use a stable base like Debian while having certain programs more up to date.

      Exactly this is why I haven’t made the switch yet.

      Its like letting a package be managed per package instead of per distro, giving its devs some more fine grain control on stability vs update speed
