@sonny @alatiera stuff like this is so painful. Just getting flatpak apps runnijg with an intel graphics card on Ubuntu is neigh impossible sometimes.

@tyalie what kind of super new intel GPUs do you have?
Here the problem is that the drivers for the new Macbook GPUs are brand new not even completed yet....

@lw64 Not even brand new - rather that GPU forwarding in flatpak is broken relatively often due to sandboxing restrictions.

Although they have bettered themselves a bit

@tyalie Usually GUI apps have by default forwarding of GPUs fully enabled. It's called "dri" in the sandbox permissions.
But maybe it's also the case of you having old software, for example due to an LTS distro :)
