Is this YouTube video legit?

The video in question (the interesting part starts at 7:45):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wm3S1jFtL9Q

So I haven't done this before, but hell, said I might as well try something new. I'm trying to assemble something commonly referred to as "winepak", where you try to put a windows application working through wine compatibility layer into a flatpak and make it possible for people with no wine experience to install. I found no good walkthrough on how to do one, save for this.

My question is: Is this video legit or a scam?

Well, here's the uploader of the video answering for you! it's not a scam indeed. Who's asking for anything? With playonlinux stopped working, and binary incompatibilites happening with distros, now wine is built using flatpak sdk, so it will work always. Anyways, I've updated creating Wine application try this: https://github.com/fastrizwaan/flatpak-wine
