Tell us about your request It would be great if Docker Desktop for Linux were available as a flatpak app that is distributed on flathub.org Apps that offer flatpaks include: podman, vs code, pychar...
But so if Docker Desktop does include Docker Engine, does that mean I wiill now be able to run Docker (with a some performance loss) simply by installing a Flatpak, i.e. I won’t even need to touch the CLI?
Yes. If you mean “CLI” as for e.g. pacman install, it is a GUI (Electron) application, so I expect will install straight from e.g. KDE Discover and then run without you touching the shell.

That is already a pretty big benefit to me, thanks for explaining!
