Trying this on linux.

The flatpak leads to this error:

    bash: ./nyxt.flatpak: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
The other link "Get NYXT for GNU/Linux" doesn't work at all.


You can't execute a Flatpak bundle directly. You need to install it, then run it. Try:

  flatpak install --user Downloads/nyxt.flatpak
  flatpak run engineer.atlas.Nyxt


Why does Flatpak insist on being so unwieldy? Every time I see it being used, I can't help but think it just looks clunky compared to... basically every other option.


you have to install it from a repository before running it. much like a normal package on Linux. to me it makes sense. you can update all your packages at once this way
