I once uninstalled a flatpak and it rendered another installed flatpak unlaunchable. Not even the repair function would fix it. Ended up having to use timeshift to rollback. Not sure if that was the fault of Flatpak or that one specific app but it was pretty frustrating.
Yeah that isn’t the problem haha. I have deleted something gnome is not happy about. This has been a few days of tinkering. I think I actually just might have fixed it. Fingers crossed, anyway.
How do you break a flatpak?

Asking the real questions here.
I broke Gnome and now I have Flatpaks that don’t launch. I don’t want to reinstall so I am slowly fixing things.
You can try
flatpak repair
. Or it could be a leftover .desktop file for that app.You can check if that app is still installed with
flatpak list
