Im new to Linux and went with Mint. What is flathub? From the name it sounds like an app store or something

Edit: Nevermind. I clicked the link and saw. I was right its an app store

Would you recommend using it with Ubuntu?

I would recommend using it with any distro, it’s distro agnostic

I would only recommend using it if a native package is not available or you need a newer version than what’s available.

Half the time I will just compile from source when I see how much space a flatpak and its dependencies will take up though.
