  Well, I never said I was concerned with security. I am to some extent but not to the point where I inspect every single update. What I value most is having every software or library available through some form of package manager. Downloading static binaries off the internet without auto-update just doesn't make it which is why I like having Flatpak as a fallback. It also makes it easier for the common user to have every piece of software available through one store. They don't need to know whether it's a .deb or a Flatpak underneath, it just needs to be there and work reasonably well. There's really no other option: either distro maintainers include every single piece of software in the repositories (unlikely), or we need a common format that works on all distros (already the case with Flatpak).
