If you’re on Linux, there’s a good chance you use GNOME: it’s the default experience across Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora Workstation, Endless OS, and more. If you’re on another desktop, you still likely use components developed by GNOME contributors—or maybe you get apps from Flathub.

Want to become more than just a user? How about… a friend? 🥺 Become a Friend of GNOME to support GNOME, Flathub, and the work we do!

🎉 Filmbook is now available on Flathub! 📷

Your film tracking app just got easier to install! You can now get Filmbook directly from Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/page.codeberg.bjawebos.Filmbook

Built with Rust & GTK4/libadwaita, Filmbook helps analog photographers keep track of their film usage with a smooth, modern interface that works great on desktop Linux and even Linux phones like the Librem 5 and Pinephone Pro!

Calling all analog photographers: I need your creative input! What features are you missing? What would make your film photography workflow even smoother? Your ideas will help shape the future of Filmbook.

Honestly amazing how well NewPipe works on the Librem 5 running via "Android Translation Layer". I had to turn down the resolution from the default 720p60fps to 240p for it to play videos reliably (didn't test anything between those) and the UI looks scuffed with various missing icons and such, but crucially it plays videos back more reliably than any other YouTube app I've tried on #postmarketOS!

On #Flathub if you want to try it yourself: flathub.org/apps/net.newpipe.N

Bonjour! Sziasztok! 안녕! I've released version 2.0 of Keypunch, the modern typing trainer for GNOME. Get ready to practice typing in many new languages!
• Text generation support for Bulgarian, Hindi, Korean, Nepali, Russian, Swiss German, and Ukranian
• More accepted ways to type certain characters, such as “oe” for “œ”
• Better handling of scripts using intelligent input engines, like Korean Hangul
…and more!
Get it on Flathub: flathub.org/apps/dev.bragefugl

The problem can can also be approached from the other direction: ISVs *please* stop promoting .deb/.rpm files—or at least relegate them to a nerdy section down below—and adopt Flatpak!

You can easily target Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Red Hat, Fedora, elementary OS, Endless OS, Steam Deck(!), Arch, etc. with Flatpak, all with minimal-to-zero user setup.

…Maybe do that?

…Like, “This app may be available in App Center. Installing from App Center is preferred for improved integration plus security and privacy features. [Check App Center]”

If a user gets as far as trying to download a .deb or .rpm (or even .exe/.msi!), we have a utility in Endless OS that kicks in and does a decent job here directing them to the app store. But I get the feeling that we’re losing/confusing people before they even get that far.

Adding something to a first-run tour doesn't seem to be a good solution; we’ve seen most people skip/close that on Endless OS, at least.

I sort of hate to suggest it, but maybe something _similar to_ (but distinct from!) what Windows does to direct people to Edge instead of another browser is actually viable?

Think: a pre-installed browser add-on that has a list of known download sites and displays a message to direct people to the app store.

We do some things—like Flathub badges for the web—to help combat this, but it’s still a losing battle: major ISVs show downloads for “Debian” and “RPMs” which new users don’t understand. I’ve seen new users across elementary OS, Endless OS, and Fedora all get decision paralysis: “I don't know if I need the Debian or Red Hat version” or, "It doesn't show Endless OS so I guess I can’t get it”

I wonder if it’s something we can combat more proactively.

The sad state of app distribution on Windows and macOS continues to trip up first-time Linux users. It's still wildly prevalent to ignore the platform app store in favor of going directly to a company’s website to download apps on those platforms—and that makes it confusing to new Linux users who would be best served by using their OS’s built-in app store, instead.

I released a small update (version 0.4.2) to Satellite, my simple #GPS / #GNSS app for #MobileLinux: codeberg.org/tpikonen/satellit (also in #Flathub).

The visible changes are the addition of 'Geoidal separation' field to the display data and a more compact display of various DOP values. As usual, there are also some small bugs fixed, and an update to the Gnome SDK version 45 in the flatpak package.

I’m gonna dip my toes into volunteering as a Flatpak/Flathub developer advocate—basically, providing a human contact at a real company that can help larger apps/companies get their apps in front of Linux (and thus Steam Deck!) users.

What are some of the biggest apps you think are missing from Flathub—or for apps already there, which are the ones you’d like to see verified?
