Yes, I know it. And I only wanted to express my opinion, which I did.
And I
believe that the thread appeared here, because Bastien wanted to hear our
opinions. Otherwise he would not have asked.
The reasoning for my opinion is this: When people install Fedora Workstation,
they want to use it right away. How would a newbie know, that there is
Flatpak?
How does the user know that there is a third-party RPM repository that contains
the necessary codecs for the movie player to work?
How does it go together with Fedora policy? We cannot ship codecs
in packages, and we can ship codecs in Flatpaks? And if not, what is the
difference then?
It's a Flatpak and it's from a third-party repository. Flatpaks from Fedora
couldn't ship those, RPMs from a third-party repository likely could.
If Flatpak Videos is better than an RPM Videos, why not install that
from
Flatpaks in the default install then?
Because we cannot ship, or point to, potentially patent-infringing software
in Fedora.
