idea: The absolute need to open JanAI as a flatpak for all Linux distributions (regardless of whatever distro that is) on the flathub repository #4242

Problem Statement

I'm always frustrated when i finished downloading fedora, but the point is, the debian package does not work on fedora and so did the appimage file. I tried to find the error that prevented me to download the appimage file for fedora but it did not work.

Feature Idea

Instead, just like most other applications built for Linux, I would recommend the devs to add JanAI as a flatpak application (most importantly, flathub) so users coming from all distributions can equally use this app seamlessly without any issues from .deb or .appimage files. Here is where you can officially submit your code to flathub:

To submit your code to the flathub repository, you can use this link as a reference:

Thank you for your interest in Jan and for suggesting Flatpak support! We truly appreciate the enthusiasm and support from the community for making Jan available to a wider audience, including immutable desktop users.

We’re actively working on bringing Jan to Flathub and have already submitted a pull request for the Flatpak package: PR #5988. However, the process has been slower than expected, and we’re awaiting further feedback from the reviewers.

If anyone has experience with the Flatpak submission process or knows how to address potential blockers, we’d love to hear your suggestions. Your insights could help us expedite the approval and ensure a smooth onboarding for Jan on Flathub.

@Minh141120 we hope that the flatpak package will have been published to the flathub repo by the end of this month.
