Provide a Flatpak

[gary-host-laptop]

Flatpaks are a more robust and secure alternative to snaps, and also is becoming a more standardized option for non-based and Ubuntu based distributions alike, and some of them come with flatpak preinstalled out of the box (CentOS, ElementaryOS, EndlessOS, Fedora, Linux Mint, PureOS and ZorinOS).

One of the biggest advantages in contrast with snaps, is that flatpaks are sandboxed, and therefore this results in a more secure and private experience since it is harder for some kind of malware to attack the system, or for said application to retrieve user information without them knowing it. Another good point is that everything that's uploaded to Flathub (Flatpak's centralized repository) is compiled by the same developers, and cannot be done by some random person on the internet which could lead to outdated packages, piracy, and whatnot. Just like snaps, Flatpaks are compatible with every distribution that supports it, so you don't have to be uploading a million different releases.

Thank you for your suggestion.
But since the build of this app depends on the Tauri framework build system, it currently only supports .deb and .AppImage.
I'm sorry.

Oh, yeah, now that you mention it I remember it being a problem with Tauri, I hope they fix that.
