Title: Flatpak/Snap version of MediaCenter?
Post by: danrien on July 04, 2022, 12:43:31 pm

Has anyone produced a Flatpak or Snap build of MediaCenter?

Hm that's a bummer. Looking at the Microsoft Teams manifest \[0] or the Steam manifest [1] for Flatpak, it doesn't look too bad, but I'm sure there's some maintenance required, and Flathub really encourages the original app publisher to be the Flatpak producer [2].

There are plenty flatpaks that are not made by the makers of said apps. Microsoft teams for instance. Its In no way a requirement. I don't think they ment it like that.
