News for developers! As a result of some awesome cross-project collaboration, Flathub now has improved tooling to make license compliance easier for you.
tl;dr app developers, ensure you’re using up-to-date runtimes and verify that licenses and copyright notices are properly included; distros, ensure your OS images have been built with updated runtimes from Flathub.

we wrote a blog post for you 😁

Ever wonder how we help keep millions of users safe while delivering thousands of apps and their updates?
We’ve written up a bit about the journey an app takes behind the scenes from its source code all the way to running on your device—with all of the safety nets along the way. 🔒

it’s a… strong suspicion. 😁

we suspect Steam Deck desktop mode shipping with Flathub out of the box has *something* to do with that. 😅

2025-02-04 23:55:49 GMT

We have a shiny new “On the Go” section on Flathub! ✨📱✨
Check out how we’re making it easier to find Linux apps for mobile devices like phones, tablets, and even Steam Decks using existing data and open standards.
And developers: if your app is ready for mobile but isn’t featured in the new section, learn how to fix it. ⚒️

so “changing policies” may not be the most precise reasoning; it sounds like it was marked EOL due to a disagreement about the enforcement of the existing policies.

that message is provided by the app maintainer, not Flathub. From a quick search on GitHub, it appears it is from the Font Manager app.
It looks like the maintainer decided to mark the app as end-of-life because they were unable or unwilling to correct its app ID according to the documented requirements¹. It had previously been accepted before the requirements (which enable verification and help ensure an app is what a user expects) were as well-enforced.

Have experience in open source program management, especially within the US legislative landscape? We’re seeking a contractor to help bootstrap Flathub into a self-sustaining entity. Help us:
• Launch payment & donation systems
• Establish operational governance
• Coordinate financial & legal operations
• Ensure community engagement & transparency

It’s been just over a week and we’ve gotten lots of great feedback so far.
If you’re an app developer and haven’t had a chance to chime in, check out @npub1lvc…cedh’s summary of the current points, and leave a comment on the forum if you have anything important that hasn’t been mentioned:
https://discourse.flathub.org/t/app-developer-feedback-about-quality-guidelines/8037/31
We look forward to continued feedback, and are excited to get more apps featured on Flathub!

Flatpak does handle this case if the maintainer uses end-of-life-rebase, which was designed for this exact case. It will install the new app ID and migrate the app data.

we're not strictly opposed to supporting a workflow that would not require a GitHub account, but it would need to be designed and implemented by *someone* while also considering the ongoing costs (monetary, technical, and human) of new processes for managing app manifests across multiple sources.
In general, discussion around these sort of topics is best held at our forum rather than social media: https://discourse.flathub.org/

hey there! This account is run by volunteers and Mastodon notifications are easy to miss; sorry about that!
App source code itself can be hosted anywhere, but currently Flathub does use our GitHub organization to host app manifests. These are repositories created and owned by Flathub on our org to centralize the permissions and CI workflows. To submit an app, you do currently need to submit a pull request against a template repository on GitHub which requires a GitHub account.

Linux app developers, we want your feedback!
If you have an app on Flathub (or are planning to), please share your thoughts on the optional quality guidelines—especially if your app doesn't currently meet the guidelines.

Some eagle-eyed folks noticed Flathub recently passed 2 billion downloads, but here are some more interesting milestones from 2024 so far:
• 70% of the most popular apps are verified
• Over 100 curated quality apps
• 4 million active installs (up 4× in the past 6 months!)
