An exciting development for this Linux app sandboxing and distribution tech. This would also help improve Google Chrome/Chromium support outside the likes of RPM and Debian based distributions with a cleaner packaging experience.

I thought there was no point in making a flatpak build because of the weakened Chromium sandbox for flatpak... And it seems like the sandbox will be disabled for this build as well.

I do hope that with Flatpak Next, things will change.
