Where this gets most interesting is if you're running atomic distributions like Fedora Silverblue. The idea is that the OS itself is immutable, i.e. when you get an update, the OS files are replaced wholesale, and you can't modify them yourself. Applications are installed in a layer on top of that via Flatpaks, and if you need more advanced tooling that's hard to run in a Flatpak (e.g. software development tools), you run those in a container - typically a container per project, or at least per stack. The reason Prompt is interesting is that 1. I can install it as a Flatpak which, as mentioned, is pretty much a requirement for me to install anything (on top of providing sandboxing), and 2. it makes it easier to jump into one of my development containers, and to see which container I'm currently working in.
