Can't I go one week without having to uninstall and reinstall the damn deb file?

just fyi I moved Discord, GIMP, Obsidian, and OBS over to flatpak and my root partition jumped from 19GB to 23GB. I'm kinda sad about it tbh
Most storage space viewers get confused by Flatpak's heavily deduplicated and compressed files, leading to them reporting way larger space than what's actually occupied on the hard drive.
4GB ain't to cry over, you already saved so much not using Windows :p
It's true lol. I had to install Docker for teaching on my old drive and that instantly maxed out my root partition even when I kept deleting intermediate builds and unused data. Now I have this fun paranoia for all apps :)
First of all, stop using legacy SI units for the size of information, they only bring confusion, instead use IEC/binary units like GiB. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix
Second of all, I know that with Flatpak's ease of installation/runtime comes great size hit. It's great that some layers are reusable, so it's not a huge hit. Besides, with big disk size it's not really a concern now is it?
