- Flatpak sandbox
- Wide access
Runs in a sandbox, but a broad part of it is open — typical for tools that need to manage your files or system. It shows what the app is able to do, not what it does.
What it can access
- Reads all your files
- Can access all devices, including cameras and USB
- Uses the internet
- Plays and records audio
- Uses the older X11 display system, which doesn't isolate windows from each other
