Suggestion: Improvements to the 1Password Uninstallation Guide on Linux with Flatpak

In the guide on uninstalling 1Password on Linux using Flatpak, a command is mentioned that removes 1Password along with its data:


sudo flatpak uninstall com.onepassword.OnePassword && sudo rm -r ~/.var/app/com.onepassword.OnePassword/config/*

I suggest removing the "sudo" command and clarifying that administrator permissions are not required for this. Instead, you can use a built-in Flatpak function to uninstall the application and its data:


flatpak uninstall --delete-data com.onepassword.OnePassword

Additionally, in the documentation about removing Flatpak applications, the following command is mentioned:


sudo flatpak uninstall onepassword

In this case, there's no need to use "sudo," and it's important to specify the application ID correctly. For 1Password, the ID is "com.onepassword.OnePassword" rather than just "onepassword." Therefore, the correct command would be:


flatpak uninstall com.onepassword.OnePassword

The final result would look like this:

Flatpak

To remove 1Password for Linux:

console
flatpak uninstall com.onepassword.OnePassword

To remove 1Password for Linux and your 1Password data:

console
flatpak uninstall --delete-data com.onepassword.OnePassword


1Password Version: Not Provided
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: Fedora Workstation
