Hey everyone, checking back in after a bit over a week of feedback and discussion. Thank you so much to everyone who has chimed in so far! This sort of conversation is enlightening and healthy.Flathub Discourse
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.

Adwaita is really pretty freaking great. It makes designing responsive apps just… easy?? Here’s an update to Butler, my Home Assistant app, for GNOME 47 and Adwaita 1.6.
Update coming soon to Flathub!

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!

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!

Next time you stop by the Flathub website you will notice it’s had a bit of a revamp. The latest UI refresh lands a year after its last big redesign and builds on that look […]Joey Sneddon (OMG! Ubuntu!)
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 :)
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.

We're ready for another round of ISO testing!
Hey ya’ll, thanks to @dogphilosopher 's heroic last minute efforts fighting with R2 we’ve got new Bluefin ISOs up! We now ship the Flatpaks on the ISO itself, allowing for a full offline installation.Universal Blue

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

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.
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.

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
The #gnome app "Memorize" is on Flathub!

It is written using Adwaita for #swift with an interface very similar to #swiftui.

In addition to the existing stable repository Flathub offers a repository for beta builds. This isn’t meant to be used for nightly builds, but for releases that has some level of testing and are expected to mostly work and be usable to non-developer …Flathub Discourse
