On immutable systems like bazzite, what’s the best way to mount webdav storage as a file system in order to open it with Cryptomator?

options i’m thinking are:

  1. use distrobox bc there i can install davfs and cryptomator
  2. look for flatpak softwares that enables this function

I’m basically clueless. Any kind of info would be much appreciated.

    thanks for the suggestion. how can I install rclone on Bazzite? A quick searching didn’t bring anything clear. Are you referring to using rclone via Distrobox or something?

      I’m not familiar with Bazzite but I do have a SteamDeck with SteamOS and I do have things installed on it. There is for it 2 ways :

      • keep binaries in home, e.g. ~/bin/rclone because that does not get deleted on updates
      • allowing SteamOS to not be read-only and add a package. Here it seems to be via ujust but I don’t see rclone in there so I’d go down their list https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/ and it seems brew install rclone would work.
