"I will never use Flatpaks because I have to type `flatpak run com.example.Application`. It's insane Flatpak developers don't change it!"

Except you can add `/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin` to your $PATH. This way, you can type `com.example.Application` in your terminal, dmenu, everywhere. Also if you aren't using completions and insist on doing everything in the terminal, you have bigger problems.

Shout out to the Evil Skeleton (@TheEvilSkeleton) , who blogged about this 3 years ago. https://tesk.page/2022/09/28/what-not-to-recommend-to-flatpak-users/#aliasing-flatpak-run
