This blog post on #Flatpak nicely illustrates the importance of #distributions (#Debian, #Guix, #Homebrew ...):
- integration of many components into a working system
- interface between developers and users

Developers short-circuiting distributions by proposing fat binaries (#Docker, #Flatpak, ...) deprive themselves of valuable feedback.
