      Bloat implies the extra space is unused or without utility. The extra bytes in Flathub packages usually come from containerization, which adds a layer of protection for the user and makes apps interoperable across all OSes. It’s also funny that you’re calling those extra bytes bloat in a post where AUR users would have benefited from the containerized design.
