Not the individual apps, no. Figured it might be something more systemic with Flatpak itself or my system. Was expecting to be pointed to logs to investigate.

The Deb installs mostly. Example, when I installed Lutris, it wouldn’t allow me to install games on the extra NVMe drive I have in the system. I uninstalled Lutris and installed the deb version from the Pop Shop (when you COULD do that) and it allowed me to install games where I liked. Just chalked it up to a Flatpak problem. Now I have Lutris installed, use it without issues, and I’m not going to try and solve Flatpak issues by re-installing it. It’s not worth my time.
Currently, any flatpak apps that don’t work properly are installed with other means, so I don’t have any non-working apps . If I run into that again, I’ll give it a try.
No use using flatpak if the installed apps won’t run properly. Be nice if they did, but they don’t.
Calibre
Discord
Filebot
Lutris
OpenRGB
Proton Mail
ProtonUp-QT
SpotifyOnly apps installed that I haven’t had issues with flatpak:
Handbrake
Shortwave
Tor
PuttyLikely a few more that I uninstalled in frustration. And I’m not 100% sure about Handbrake. I stopped using it for the Blu-ray rips, and stuff that interacts with the filesystem tend to break the most in flatpaks.

It Could Drop for a Ninth Straight Week.English14·4 months agoTesla was overinflated because it was run as a software startup, where they had money pouring in from venture capital. They had money coming in, but it wasn’t simply from sales. Let’s see if that stalls too.
But wasn’t his Tesla shares used as collateral for the Twitter financing? If Tesla tanks enough, won’t his Saudi banking backers raise hell?

Banzai51@midwest.socialOPto Pop!_OS (Linux)@lemmy.world•Linux equivalent to Robocopy?English0·9 months agoOk, after some looking around and testing, think I finally got what I wanted.
First, map the share, err mount the network share. Gotta use the Linux lingo. :P
sudo mount -t cifs -o username=MyUserName //PlexServerName/Sharename /mnt/movies/
Will have to enter both the sudo password and remote Plex server password manually, but that works for me as this is a manual, not automated, process.And to sync:
sudo rsync -hvrPt --ignore-existing /Drive/SourceFolder/ /mnt/movies/
I was reading somewhere that using -a would add more options that might gum up the works, so I manually expressed what I wanted instead. But I finally got what I was looking for. If you have any suggestions, chime in. Thanks!
