Now you have two options~~, either~~ allow the Flatpaks to access the font folder ~~to use the fonts.~~ By using the Flatpak CLI or the Flatseal Flatpak make the following directory available to all Flatpaks <code>$HOME/.local/share/fonts</code> and <code>$HOME/.icons</code> the appropriate commands for this are:

Now you have two options.

==== Option 1: allow the Flatpaks to access the font folder and <code>/nix/store</code> ====

By using the Flatpak CLI or the Flatseal Flatpak make the following directory available to all Flatpaks <code>$HOME/.local/share/fonts</code> and <code>$HOME/.icons</code> the appropriate commands for this are:

flatpak --user override --filesystem=$HOME/.local/share/fonts:ro

flatpak --user override --filesystem=$HOME/.icons:ro

</syntaxhighlight>

And, because <code>~/.local/share/fonts</code> is linked to <code>/run/current-system/sw/share/X11/fonts</code>, which in turn is linked to content in <code>/nix/store</code>.

You need to grant flatpak applications access to the <code>/nix/store</code> directory,

so that they can load fonts correctly.

flatpak --user override --filesystem=~~$HOME~~/~~.local~~/~~share/fonts~~

flatpak --user override --filesystem=/nix/store:ro

~~flatpak --user override --filesystem=$HOME/.icons~~

Or allow them access the WHOLE filesystem of yours: <code>All system files</code> in Flatseal or equivalently <code>filesystem=host</code> available to your application, the command for this is:
