  • You can also just use your phone. The app is called Kore and is free and open source. It connects over the local network, so you don’t need an IR pointer or anything like that.

    Edit: Just noticed that the comment you replied to already mentioned Kore. Anyway, I actually prefer using it over a remote. I always have my phone with me, I can use the phone’s keyboard and I can share stuff like YouTube links directly to it.














  • It depends, since flatpaks are sandboxed, they don’t have access to anything by default. The developer can set defaults for what their app is allowed to access and the user can also manually change that. There’s also portals, so you can give them access for a file once (e.g. when opening in a file in an app) or allow them to see your screen and so on. There’s still a lot of things that don’t have portals tho, so flatpaks don’t have access to that.
