Possible reason for Kodi flatpak crashes?



I saw these posts on Mastodon:

Quote:Oooh, after #Signal failed to start, I may have finally figured out why sometimes #Matrix #Element starts with a blank screen. Turns out #flatpak starts all applications where what it pretends is `/tmp` is in fact `/run/user/NNN` – which is a ramdisk with a rather limited size, and it simply runs out of space.

Quote:I wonder if this is why #Kodi (media center software) crashes after it has been in use for a while (since it is now installed using flatpak)?

Kodi crashes on me two or three times a night, but never while I am actually watching something, it either happens right as a video finishes playing or while I am moving around in the UI.  Now that I read this, it also makes me suspicious that Kodi might be running out of space in same way.
