The Return of the Frame Pointers
I think I might have confused two unrelated posts. The one that references Polar Signals is this one:
https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/issues/...
So not a perf issue there, but they don't think the workflow is suitable for whole-system profiling. Perf issues were in the context of `perf` using DWARF:

- Finally mesa version 23.1.1 for fedora 38 has been published for testing 11 hours ago. It comes with quite important features like vulkan gpl for RADV to fight stutters in games and for better performance.

But the fd-sdk https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk and gnome build meta https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta projects can prove as good references.

Rant: Desktop Sandboxing
With all of these hypothetical features out of the way and looking just at current release software, Flatpak allows you to do so much stuff that isn't accessible for a not-so-techy user. Custom installation folder? Yep. Running mesa-git GPU drivers? You got it. Any way to easily do this via GUI? In typical Linux fashion, nope. For a GUI focused packaging format this is a big letdown.
- Issue found for: Steam Deck Issue With Flatpak Hardware Decoding
- Steam Flatpak. Tried RADV_PERFTEST=gpl with proton-ge-54 but doesnt seem to be working when compared to using it with Bottles. Please see if I did it right.

Is there any way to force a specific Mesa driver for applications when multiple Mesa driver versions have been installed?

Fedora Workstation 38 Is Shaping Up To Be Another Fantastic Release
You can load up Mesa GIT using environment variables, see here. Honestly what I miss the most from flatpak Steam is properly working non-Steam shortcuts, but I've given up on that.

PSA: The new OBS update breaks VA-API encoding when used with the Flatpak
It was my understanding that the packages for vaapi are just put into the -extra version of the sdk so app maintainers can opt out, but they are still available if they want to use them. See https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/merge_requests/10616

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix.

No, it looks like you have to do it on an application basis.

Flathub – The Linux App Store
> CLI tools do not implement auto-complete themselves. What you are seeing are auto-complete scripts for your shell that make network connections.
nit: This is incorrect. Robust auto-complete scripts call the actual program to provide completions.
That is what Flatpak does. It is Flatpak itself that makes the network connections.
https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/blob/main/completion/flat...
Not that it would make any differencen if it was implemented in Bash seeing as the Bash script is also provided by Flatpak.

Linux Phones (2022)
The only performance impact I know of is with the seccomp filter in CPU-bound tasks: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/4187
Skimming through the recent comments, there might be a way to optimize some of it.
What are some alternatives?
Flatseal - Manage Flatpak permissions
steam-runtime - A runtime environment for Steam applications
argos-translate - Open-source offline translation library written in Python
firejail - Linux namespaces and seccomp-bpf sandbox
