We're excited to announce an investment of over 500K Euro by @sovtechfund into Flatpak!

The focus of the project is on closing gaps in Flatpak’s sandboxing story: new portals for audio, networking, VPNs, and spell checking, as well as infrastructure work on entitlements and intents. We have a great team of community members on board, who will be working on this through the end of 2027.

@aram they can bring you here but you may not get permanent residence, as I have learned. I hope for the sake of all these people they hired that they actually help them immigrate instead of languish.
