  • It depends, since flatpaks are sandboxed, they don’t have access to anything by default. The developer can set defaults for what their app is allowed to access and the user can also manually change that. There’s also portals, so you can give them access for a file once (e.g. when opening in a file in an app) or allow them to see your screen and so on. There’s still a lot of things that don’t have portals tho, so flatpaks don’t have access to that.












  • The reasoning for only allowing predefined colors was that, apparently, developers need to be able to test against every color and that Android’s Material You is a total mess. I disagree with both of that, Material You seems to be working quite fine (I’ve also made apps myself) and I don’t get what developers would need to test with accent colors. I couldn’t voice my opinion tho cause then the whole thing would’ve been canned.
