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 @cassidy’s summary of the current points, and leave a comment on the forum if you have anything important that hasn’t been mentioned:

We look forward to continued feedback, and are excited to get more apps featured on Flathub!

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.

Qtractor is a free, open-source digital audio workstation (DAW) designed for multi-track audio and MIDI recording, editing, and mixing. Qtractor version 1.4.0 was released on November 01, 2024 and is available to download from the Flathub website.

📱 🗞️
I also like the UI of the app #Newsflash from #Gnome circle.
It can be installed from #flathub and also synchronizes with #FreshRSS .
I will mostly use the FreshRSS web interface, but on my tesing #Oneplus6 phone with #PostmarketOS it is my number one choice.


Speech to Text on Linux?!?!

I just found "Speech Note" when searching the Software app.
Installed it via flatpak.
flathub.org/apps/net.mkiol.Spe…

Used the "English (Vosk Large)" and "English (Vosk Small)" language model with very decent results. There are loads of models to choose from.
All processed locally. No network needed!
This is great!

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!)

Attention, developers! My inner perfectionist just noticed that the #Flathub download badge has been subtly improved, but many repositories are still using the old design. Let's fix this! Make sure that your READMEs and websites are rocking the latest design from flathub.org/badges. It's not much, but it will let me sleep peacefully at night again!


Resources 1.5 has landed on Flathub yesterday with battery monitoring along with other bug fixes and improvements! 🥳

Check it out! :)

#flathub beta for #deltachat_desktop is now available for testing.

We also improved the new small screen mode so that #linuxmobile phones can use it again. (still not a use case we can support officially, but now you can actually use it)

How fast can you type? Find out with my new app, Keypunch!

I've worked on this for the last couple of months, and it's finally out. Keypunch lets you practice your typing skills with automatically generated pseudo-text in your language of choice. Alternatively, you can supply it with your own text, such as song lyrics, Wikipedia articles, and quotes. Get ready to accelerate your typing speed!

Shout out to Text Pieces! I needed to URL-encode a big ugly string (creating a template form from URL parameters, yay!) and yep, sure enough, it made it stupidly easy.

The next time you need to encode, transform, or convert some text on Linux, reach for this pretty little offline app instead of pasting your data into some random website. 👍

It's not long until the 1st of June, so why not pick up the guitar and learn some catchy tunes for the summer? I've just published version 7.0 of Fretboard, which brings more accurate chord name prediction, note names on hover for the neck top toggles, and a couple of fixes for various small issues encountered since last release. It should be on Flathub very soon!

Ptyxis, a toolbox/distrobox container aware terminal from Christian Hergert is now available on Flathub!

I'm excited to see Fretboard featured on @flathub's front page this week! 😃

The Flathub website just received a fab revamp ✨

#flathub #linux


Today's the day 🥳✨🌈

The new home page layout is live on flathub.org now, including:

- Banner with 5 featured apps (updated weekly)
- App of the day
- New group for trending apps
- Tabbed section with trending, popular, new and updated apps

This has been almost a year in the making, including tons of work on documentation, backend, frontend, and the actual metadata in apps. Special thanks to @razze and @tbernard!

@sonny It's a tricky one, but I think it should be doable to make it work somehow. For being featured the first screenshot is most important, you can preview that here: docs.flathub.org/banner-previe…

More generally, I'd reduce the number of screenshots to 3 or so (e.g. first, second, last) and avoid manual compositing with multiple windows as much as possible. Happy to discuss this more in detail, but might be better on Matrix, e.g. #flathub or #gnome-design :)


Quick #flathub/#flatpak question regarding AppStream Metadata - what's the correct way to handle screenshots for apps that are inherently multi-window like Multiplex? In the long run I want to embed MPV, but that will be a while out still. I've tried to improve the old screenshots by green-screening the background and using the GNOME shadows, but I still can't pass the "resonable window size", "just the app window" etc. requirements ...


Retro; the customizable clock widget is now available on Flathub in v2

What's new:

• 24/12h support (follows GNOME Settings)
• Energy usage optimizations
• Better support for round clocks
• Controls moved out of the way

What do you think of the floating header bar?

Thanks to all you developers out there adding brand colors to your apps over the past months we're almost ready to launch featured banners ✨

If you're an app maintainer and haven't done this yet for your app, here are the docs: docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-…

To make it more interesting we're setting a deadline! We will be launching the new banners on April 20th, so for the possibility to be featured during the first week, update your apps today :)

Big thank you to @dogphilosopher for an update to flatpaks on Bluefin. Now flatpaks can be preinstalled from the ISO rather than having to download them on first boot in order to provide the intended experience. That means @thunderbird on the dock by default!

Awesome step forward for us to be able to bring you intended apps by default without straying from @flathub

If you can help with testing the new ISOs, please see below for instructions.

Junction 1.8 is out ✨

Junction pops up automatically when you open a file or link to let you choose which app to open with.

The highlight of this version is better mobile and touch support :linux: 📱

Plus, the app is now verified on Flathub and has a "High quality app data" rating.

#GNOME #GTK #Flatpak #Flathub #LinuxMobile #Linux


You may have seen the “Verified” badge on apps from Flathub which shows that the developer has proven ownership of their app, e.g. via their website or code host.

With great adoption (nearly 1,000 verified apps!), we’re trying something out to help with transparency:

⚠️ Unverified

If you see this, it flags that the app has not been verified by its developer—it’s effectively a community-maintained package.

#Flathub #Flatpak #Linux


Friends of energy efficiency - the Light Video 0.1.0 #Flathub update is out, build with #gtk4 4.14 and #GStreamer 1.24.1.

This should be the first app targeting the #linux / FDO desktop enabling Wayland video offloading (think zero-copy playback) by default. In many cases (actually more than I expected) this can improve battery lifetime - and on low-end devices even playback performance - significantly.

Thank you stranger. The work required to review Flatpak is very much appreciated.

#Flatpak #Flathub #Linux


Received my first automated email from Flathub to inform me that the permission change in our app "Biblioteca" is under review.

Love to see it!

Well done @flyingpimonster, @barthalion and @razze

“Improved build validation, increased moderation, and the long-awaited switch to libappstream” by @barthalion

Heads up to app developers: Flathub’s automatic build validation is more thorough now, and includes checks for issues we previously would have only flagged manually. There’s a chance that if your app has been passing continuous integration checks previously, it will fail now; here’s why, and what to do about it:
