Firefox the flatpak version crashed and decided to remove itself from the system, is this common on Linux??

I checked thru Discover and terminal using whereis firefox and all I got is user/lib64/firefox

I should be mad, but I find this too hilarious to be mad… lol… files disappear not entire apps

    No. Sometimes package managers run into issues though. It’s rare, but it’s possible. If you had been updating on the CLI you would have seen the problem.

          First, it’s true. Secondly, it matters a lot because there’s no fool proof way to update through the CLI that takes into account all of the software delivery methods that exist today so you could do use dnf to upgrade daily and still have old flatpak or viceversa. That’s exactly why Fedora recommends updating through the GUI.
