  • There’s something valueable to learn here. Seems like flatpak installs packages per user, meaning when you do

    $sudo flatpak update

    it runs as the root user, which probably doesn’t have any packages installed.

    Kind of a weird concept if you used Windows for a long time before switching to linux, where running as admin still used the same user account just with elevated privileges iirc

    Edit: According to flathub running flatpak as root installs packages systemwide, otherwise they’re installed on a per user basis. You should still keep the multi user thing I mentioned in your mind if you’re used to windows
