From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

But they don't adhere to the system theme at all so every time I launch a flatpak it is white if it uses GTK; and they are annoying to launch via command line.
You can theme them with some overrides: https://itsfoss.com/flatpak-app-apply-theme/
I throw this in my
.local/share/flatpak/overrides/global
file in order to enable theming (the override directory may require flatseal? I forget):Then you can put your stuff in your personal
~/.themes
and~/.icons
directoriesAs for calling via command line, you can use something like this or just manually make aliases.
