This is where Linux is going as well. I believe that in the future most peoples base systems will contain only necessary packages and other software will be run out of Flatpaks or a comparable technology separate from the host.
- nickstinemates 3y agoThis is how I run everything outside of coreutils in Linux. Either with VM isolation or packed away in a container. Host is basically a hypervisor with external monitoring and logging.
- jchw 3y agoFlatpak right now isn't really a security boundary. That said, I don't think there's any particular reason it couldn't or shouldn't be in the future. The model seems amenable to it, and maybe it was at one point the intent even.
