    KDE’s Discover has a button for that. I always delete the app and leftovers from there.

    Great thing, flatpak is litterally the heaviest folder on my system, and UI are great for those who are not used to the terminal commands.

    what’s the difference between flatsweep and using flatpak uninstall —unused —delete-data?

      Yeah, that’s my question, why is this a problem?!?!

      I’m pretty sure that command is for deleting unused apps (and their data) and flatsweep is for removing leftover data after removal…
      like there’s probably no need for it if you pass delete data every time you remove a flatpak

      Hey, definitely not the original developer here. I’m sure they’d be very embarassed to learn about this command after making an app that does the same thing! I don’t know for sure though, as I am definitely not them, haha.

        I think there’s still value in it from being a DE-agnostic GUI solution, for what it’s worth.

      It’s a GUI. That’d be the difference. It’s the same tool for folks who aren’t comfortable on the command line.

      Like it or not, for wider adoption we need GUI solutions for things like this. You clearly don’t need it, so don’t install it. Problem solved.

        lol I know it’s a GUI. I asked not to be snarky but to know whether functionally they do the same thing, so I/people who have used the CLI can evaluate whether we miss anything when using that command.
