  • This should add the flathub remote to the system and then install all the existing user packages into the system level. Then removes all the user level packages.

    flatpak --system remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
    flatpak --system install $(flatpak list --columns=application)
    flatpak --user remove $(flatpak list --columns=application)
    

    Personally I would just pick all the ones you’d like to be global (system level) and leave the rest at the user level.


  • Now that apple has their own silicon, all the older intel based MacBooks are pretty cheap. I just replaced my wife’s 2013 MacBook Airs battery, upgraded the drive, and installed Linux. It’s been a solid little laptop. Not the fastest but there’s probably a few pro models within your price range. Just make sure to get at least a 16gb model since the ram is soldered. Might have issues with the webcam, but the wifi drivers are pretty good.
