it is bloat. also were is your package for (insert any very obscure program). I guess your going to have to rely on appimages or building from source for this one!
Bloat implies the extra space is unused or without utility. The extra bytes in Flathub packages usually come from containerization, which adds a layer of protection for the user and makes apps interoperable across all OSes. It’s also funny that you’re calling those extra bytes bloat in a post where AUR users would have benefited from the containerized design.
