Flatseal’s job is to do that. As for the note app, that’s not great, but you can use flatseal to take away those permissions after installation.

I don’t blame the guy for being human and it’s free software etc, but this is reality bad optics for immutable distros. If my nephew and grandma are going to need manual interventions like this one, then might as well use a less restrictive system. The promise of seamless and easy updates are the main draw for me.
It would be much appreciated if UniBlue made the update process more robust and more resistant to such mistakes.
(also curl piped into sudo bash is way more common than it should be)
Immutable distros like Silverblue or Bazzite are the only path I see that can work for normies. However flatpak itself has to mature more, theming anomalies need to be dealt with somehow for example.
Mint is only good to ease a technically inclined person into the linux world.
