+# Flatpak
+*This article is part of the bloat and vomit inducing series*
+
+Flatpak (also known as Fatpak) is a [bloated](bloat.md) package manager for [Linux](linux). It aims to "unify" and replace all distro
+specific packages manager into a single one. Because of that, it ships ALL libraries required by any installed program, even in the
+distro already includes them, for "compatibility" purposes, sometimes for EACH package; this makes fatpak extremely bloated.
+"*Ohhh brother one more package and fatpak will begin reusing the libraries trust bro*".
+When that mythical point is reached you will already have like 20 glibc [dynamic libraries](dynamic_library.md)
+and like 5 video drivers for [GPUs](gpu.md) your machine does not even have.
+
+Futhermore, Fatpak also forces a permission model and sandboxing for programs, (["apps"](app.md) in their terms). This is a step towards turning Linux into another
+locked platform like mobile [operating systems](os.md), where "apps" can only be installed from a single pre-approved source, blocking any attempt from
+the user to install his own "apps". Actually, fatpak already has a "app store", see: <https://flathub.org/>. It is also notable how almost all of their
+"apps" look exactly the same, this is because they also aim to force [GNOME](gnome.md) as the only [GUI](gui.md)+
+toolkit along with the awful "Adwaita" theme.
+
+{ Prediction: 8K screens will be required for GTK6 at this point given that their title bars occupy half
+the screen in "[old](old.md) and obsolete" <=2K screens lmao ~tocariimaa }

+## Less harmful alternatives
+- your distro native package manager (if you come from the future and your package manager is fatpak, change distro)
+- [BSDs](bsd.md) doesn't have any of this [bullshit](bullshit.md).
