Are there technical reasons not to enable Flatpak for other architectures, e.g. aarch64? Asking because I could potentially play Brutal Doom on Batocera on the Pi4, there is GZDoom for aarch64 on Flathub ;)

Users would of course not be able to use the GUI to install Flatpak outside PC but they could still use the CLI.

I would love to be able to install GeForce Now via Flatpak on my RPi 4, so support would be greatly appreciated!

That one exists for aarch64 too :)

i think we can enable flatpak in aarch64 once wayland and wayland-x11 will be put first.

Is it planned to bring wayland to aarch64 ? :)
