No, thank you. As I repeatedly said in the past, I consider Flatpaks and
similar things against the best interests of a Linux distribution. They
encourage bundling, take up unnecessary disk space and rely on package
management tools that lacked the basic feature of dependency checking
upon removal until very recently[1]. "App store"-like experience is not
what I would like to see in Fedora.

There should be a science of discontent. People need hard times and
oppression to develop psychic muscles.
