  • There’s a lot of pipeline between the filter at the plant and your home which is where something like lead contamination would happen. However from wiki,

    When filtering water, charcoal carbon filters are most effective at removing chlorine, particles such as sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste and odor. They are not effective at removing minerals, salts, and dissolved inorganic substances.

    And The EPA, make it sound like Carbon filtering is not an effective solution to PFAS contamination at an industrial scale. So I doubt your Brita pitcher is going to do better.

    IDK why you’re being so rage baity. Its easy to avoid flatpaks if you dont like them. Only thing I’ve ever found as an obstacle was adding the binaries to my PATH so I can launch it with dmenu_run. Otherwise my package manager works well enough.

    Bonus points: Write a PKGBUILD that installs flatpaks to /opt and symlink out binaries as needed.
