In a surprise move, Ubuntu developers have agreed to stop shipping Flatpak, preinstalled Flatpak apps, and any plugins needed to install Flatpak apps through a GUI software tool in the default package set across all eight of Ubuntu’s official flavors, as of the upcoming Ubuntu 23.04 release.

      No, it’s not nice decision. It’s more political decision, to force Ubuntu’s own solution instead of alternative.

      (I’m wondering if you would be notified for reply in mastodon?)

        Business as usual considering their history of Unity and Mir, so.

            @winnie
            It shouldn’t matter. Mastodon users should get notified when you reply to their post even though they aren’t tagged in it.

            At least that’s the case for me on Friendica but I remember the same behaviour from back when I used Mastodon.

      Wait, how did you view this post via Mastodon? I know both Lemmy and Mastodon use ActivityPub but the UX and urlpatterns are quite different and client-specific. What is the format of the link you used to view this?

        I also demand answers. Should I be able to see Mastodon posts via my Lemmy/wefwef?
