on Aug 13, 2026 Closing as not planned for the current desktop packaging architecture. Nextcloud Native file integration depends on native host services, so the supported distribution path is native RPM/DEB packages and Windows MSI rather than a reduced sandboxed build without that integration. Flatpak can be reconsidered if a secure, supportable host-service integration becomes available.

because there are many immutable distros which supports only Flatpak, btw through flatpak portal you can integrate it with host
Reacted by veryCrunchy, Tomsk and bojogon7Will have a look at it! Could you provide a bit more info?
Here is some docs: https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/docs/
TL;DR Flatpak allows notifications, file access outside sandbox if you define it (you by yml file or users by Flatseal application), and many other integrations. For example here is File Chooser outside sandbox: https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/docs/doc-org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser.html and you can find many other integrations in side menu.
