opensnitch VS flathub

Can't forget about OpenSnitch, for those of you that would rather not buy a license to do this sorta thing: https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch

I was working on an old game; trying to understand its Network protocol, and how the binary behavior when something on the connections goes wrong, and something comes to my mind: "What if I could block the traffic to this server only for this process?" what brings me to OpenSnitch.

Have you seen OpenSnitch? https://github.com/evilsocket/opensnitch

It's a Linux project that's replication what Little Snitch does on macOS - it doesn't decrypt TLS secured data but it does show and allow blocking of network connections (even if it can't see exactly what's going on inside this connections).

Combining eCapture features with OpenSnitch would be awesome. It'd be great if as well as tracking all network connection, you could flag connections sending specific data (like your name, email address, or phone number) to unexpected servers.

opensnitch has existed for a while now. I've never used it, so I can't comment on how well it works.

No, flatpak doesn't use distributions package managers. It doesn't need RPM/DEB packages to work. Today if you want to distribute a flatpak application, you build it once, upload it to flathub.org and it will show up in countless distributions like SteamOS 3 and Pop_OS!.

if you wanna install in terminal using flatpak please go to : https://flathub.org/ to make your life easier.

Yes you can install anything available here https://flathub.org/

Flathub: https://flathub.org

All flathub.org flatpaks are available in Discover. You can have a look there to see if you can find what you need. Discord, Spotify, Zoom, MS Teams and ONLYOFFICE (if you need good MS Office compatibility) are all there. I think it comes with Firefox pre-installed, but I'm pretty sure the Deck UI's non-steam tab comes with a one-click installer for Chrome, if that's more your speed. There's also a Chromium flatpak in Discover.

The Discover store is the KDE application for installing/updating/removing things - which in the Steam Deck is used to handle Flatpaks from Flathub.

Linux users typically do not install software like this, we use a package manager (a bit like the app stores on phones) to install stuff instead. SteamOS comes with Flatpak, so you can go over to FlatHub and start installing stuff.

You can install anything from https://flathub.org/.
