How to install gnome extensions with flatpak

General system Applications

I installed Flatpak and downloaded gnome extension flatpakref. How do you install it from there?

If you want flatpak (which are in my opinion useless on a rolling release distribution), the simpler way to go is to use gnome-software which provides flatpak support embedded.

Thanks, I’ve never used flatpak. I’ll install gnome-software and get it from there.

Perhaps this is a strange question but why would you use a flatpak to acquire a gnome extension?

Wouldn’t it be easier just to install the extension directly?

I got some bad info from some site. I installed Software installed from there. will probably never used flatpak. I would rather use the command line for most installs.
