Another commenter recommended Flatseal. I now have it installed and I'll give it a shot when I run into an issue.
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.
I'm not looking for specific app help. Just had so many issues with different apps installed with Flatpak that I figured there might be something in the system or Flatpak itself that I needed to look into. I'll use Flatseal the next time I have an issue to see if that helps.
But I got bamboozled in 2007-2012 by the financial crisis and instead of blaming Bush and his cronies, I decided to blame the newly elected black guy. Everyone else should now suffer since my privilege was exposed as not rich enough to be unaffected!!!!!!
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
Spotify
Only apps installed that I haven't had issues with flatpak:
Handbrake
Shortwave
Tor
Putty
Likely 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.
TV streaming STARTED fragmented. Just it was all bundled together in a cable subscription. The (ineffective) moderator in that were the cable companies like Comcast, who were always trying to negotiate the price of a channel down. Suddenly with streaming, you could start your own service and getting dropped by someone like Comcast wasn't the death sentence it used to be. The TV content creators are dealing with the end user for the first time.
The music industry long ago learned they get better sales when all their vynal/cassettes/CDs are available at Kmart/Walmart/Best Buy/etc. The music industry DID fragment a bit with online streaming, but those quickly failed. And the artists soon realized that being cool and exclusive to iTunes lead to less money for them.
If you have old coax cable already in your walls, MOCA 2.5 devices can be used to turn them into 1 Gig Ethernet.
In tech, nothing is for life.
But, I would recommend something you can install OpenWRT or OpenSense. If sorting out hardware isn't for you, I have a Ubiquity UDM Pro and love it. I miss some of the fine tuning of OpenWRT, but the extra security features on the UDM seem worth it to me.

Enjoy your life, Ragnow! Thanks for the hard fought years in the trenches.

Hey all, anyone know if there are any directions on how to swap out to the assist_satellite from this depreciated sensor? Normally when there is a swap like this, the Home_Assistant folks give us some directions, but I can't find squat on this.
Hey all, noob here. In the system settings of Pop OS I chose dark mode. At first everything was fine. But something happened. This issue is only happening in the Show Applications area. It is dark mode, but the text is all black instead of switching over to a lighter color like it did before. Makes it tough to read as you can see in the screenshot. I've tried flipping to light mode and then back to dark mode several times of varying length with no success. Any tips to get it back to normal?
Bonus issue: I have uninstalled OpenRGB, but it is still showing up in the app list as you can see in the screenshot. Any way to remove it? If I reinstall OpenRGB, I get a second icon.
Hey all, with camp just a few weeks away I'd like to reach out to you and see what you would like to see. After all, this is YOUR forum much more than it is mine.
Anything you'd like to see from me? Any kind of content you'd like to do or take over? Anything I'm doing that annoys the hell out of you?
Generally I've been trying to do an opponent preview on Monday/Tuesday, game thread, and post game thread. And yeah, I've missed occasionally. Sorry.
Let me know what you think.

Doesn't matter. People are already blaming weather services even though they DID forecast and warn if floods. Camp just decided to ignore it.
