Works everywhere -available as Flatpak

Don't you mean Works everywhere where Flatpak is available?

How about "Works everywhere and is available as a flatpak for convenience"? Maybe that was the intended message?

Isn't flatpak available in all distros?

People love hating on flatpak for some reason. Maybe they only have 256MB of storage or something.

Alpine. FreeBSD. OK, spent.

Being available as a flatpak doesnt mean it will only run as a flatpak.

Turns out this is also available in Alpine repositories, so I went ahead and installed it on my phone. Could come in handy when browsing from public Wi-Fi or such. Thanks for the tip.

Yes it does.
