Thought I’d create a distinct thread from the previous one asking about daily use, because I really do want to hear more on people’s pain points. Great to know people are generally sounding pretty positive in those posts who recently switched, but want to know your difficulties as well! This way old and new users can share their thoughts, hopefully to inspire a respectful discussion.

    I’m confused about Flatpaks :c The flatpak version of PhpStorm was the easiest way to install it, but because it’s isolated from the rest of my system it couldn’t really talk to the php version that’s globally installed on my machine. I couldn’t really figure out how to get the php version into the flatpak, so I installed it in some different way. Not a huge hassle, and I bet I’ll understand it some day, but I did feel pretty dumb haha

      This is both the benefit and pain point for flatpaks

      You could install Flatseal and use it to give PhpStorm full access to your disk.
