Anyone who's been using computers for a while (any OS, not just Linux) will be aware that uninstalling an app doesn't always remove all data associated
As far as I can tell this seems to be for deleting application data (~/.var/app/*), whereas flatpak uninstall --unused is for uninstalling runtimes that are no longer needed.
Because there are distros, like fedora for one, that have flat packs installable by the likes of discovery on KDE that doesn’t require CLI useage for install or uninstall of flatpacks
How is this different from
flatpak uninstall --unused
?

flatpak uninstall --delete-data
But this doesnt work once uninstalled. This really is an isse with flatpaks.
