https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 --- Comment #13 from Aleix Pol --- FWIW I think the big difference here is that you assume that the user will eventually install flatpak and have it ready to run, whereas my understanding is that flatpak (and snap) should come built-in in distros by default soon. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 --- Comment #11 from Nate Graham --- Sorry, wasn't trying to nitpick. I don't think it's like your LibreOffice example; there are plenty of people who would use a computer without libreoffice. But what's the use case for someone to install the Flatpak backend without Flathub? Still, if this has to be a downstream matter, that's fine. I'll make my case to the distros. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 --- Comment #10 from Aleix Pol --- Well, what we can't do is modify the user's system just because. Also please don't nitpick on my wording when I'm trying to convey an idea. Adding it automatically would be something like "install libreoffice automatically on the first Discover run, because it's the only stable office suit in linux". We won't go modifying stuff because the distribution didn't bother. Instead, we should advocate for a vision on how users will adopt their software on their systems while making it easy for users of distros that didn't care to have the minimal features at reach. I'm open to adding actions, buttons, notifications but I don't consider acceptable to add a source automatically. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 --- Comment #9 from Nate Graham --- I'm trying to think about this from the perspective of my wife, a user of Plasma and Discover. If she saw that pop-up, she would think "What's a Flatpak? What's Flathub? What are my repositories, and do I actually want them modified? What does any of this mean? How should I know the right answer? I just want to see what apps are available." These technologies are great, but we don't need to push their jargon in the user's faces, especially when we can do a good of anticipating what they *would* want to do. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 --- Comment #8 from Nate Graham --- What's the use case for a person who would answer "no"? to that? Since Flathub is really the only production-ready Flatpak repo right now, my preference would be just add it automatically. The Flatpak backend isn't very useful without it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=387718 Nate Graham changed: What|Removed |Added Ever confirmed|0 |1 Resolution|FIXED |--- Status|RESOLVED|REOPENED --- Comment #6 from Nate Graham --- Is this really up to distros? I was very surprised that I had to manually add Flathub after installing the Flatpak backend. It's not very useful without at least one Flatpak source. It seems reasonable that distros might adjust this, but why not provide a sane default so they don't have to if they're satisfied with Flatpak? This would also help users (like me) who manually install the Flatpak backend and just want it to work with a minimum of fuss. I can try to work with the Kubuntu plasma-discover maintainers, but the none of the other distros will get this without their own work. I think we would provide a better user experience with a sane default. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I'd complain to your distribution. One thing I did add for 5.12 is a menu entry in settings called "add flathub" that does so. The user still needs to install, we can advertise it more aggressively though. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
