r/flatpak

Why, after turning off all options under Flatseal->Filesystem and even deleting Other files->xdg-downloads line, in Google Earth, when i click File->Open..., in file picker dialog, I still see Downloads folder under my ~ folder? I understand those are not my real ~ and ~/Downloads folders, but why Downloads is visible as a sufolder of ~ ? I think, as far as I understand Flatpak sandboxing, ~ and ~/Downloads are just constructs in memory, like temporary file system, which is proven by my trying to save a .kml file under Downloads, which does not survive restarting Google Earth, but why Downloads subfolder? I understand that Flatpak apps need an illusion of filesystem in order to not crash, but why specifically ~/Downloads subfolder is created? Isn't ~ enough?

I used the command

sudo flatpak update --commit=cc30925b13873efcc51bdbd35bd0f67f6393f304ec47f9f89fd44f7935e9c9b5

but receiving this error. Searched Google for hours, none of the advices worked, I tried all other commands like flatpak remote-delete --force flathub and such.

This worked perfectly last night, tried a clean OS install today and now it doesn't work.

Going to lose my mind, can someone help please? I need to downgrade because the new version has performance problems.
