    I don’t know that very many people would understand the limitations of it just like they didn’t with ChromeOS. Just need a major hardware manufacturer to start putting a Linux distro on their machines and make a more stable application installation system than KDE Discover or shore up Discover a bit and it would be great to consolidate rpm, deb, etc., rather than adding new systems like Snap and Flatpak.

      I don’t think that would work. The reason for things like flatpak and snaps to exist is because they don’t interfere with the host package manager. Combining debs and rpms would be a disaster. Unless it would be possible to create a package manager that can track all of those different formats, but i don’t know about that.
