    Go to flathub.org, download a file, sideload, reboot system. It sucks, I agree. But I set up the flathub repo before handing it to my family members. It's not a "workaround hack" lol.

    Still, I am not fully convinced. If you want to install zoom it's already available by default in the software center of ubuntu via snap, and for dropbox you would need to download the .deb from dropbox.com and doubleclick it to install. Not perfect but I guess not much harder than to use an .exe on windows.
