    It could be modified to be malicious after approval, but then the admins can mark it as EOL which shows a warning at install time (happened during the polymc drama for example)

    I'm sure it's planned, but not only does onboarding to flat hub take time, but there's an on-going discussion on the fate of the current PolyMC flatpak. For those itching to get the launcher.
  • OVE-20221017-0001: PolyMC appears to be compromised

    The Flatpak is in control of someone on the PlaceholderMC team and will likely be switched over to PlaceholderMC. You're free to mask updates out of an abundance of caution, of course, but it's fairly unnecessary and may cause harm if you forget to undo it later on. Relevant issue
  • PolyMC compromised by rogue developer having unabomber manifesto in steam bio
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 17 Oct 2022
    For those who use PolyMC, the most pressing question at the moment would be "what should I do right now"; one of the discussions had a link to the following gist https://gist.github.com/Earthcomputer/dc65391f84a2c19ebac6c3... which says that the two most important steps (before opening PolyMC, otherwise it could auto-update) would be to disable automatic updates, and change the metadata server to the one from the MultiMC project (from which PolyMC had forked).

    That gist also links to an issue on the flatpak package (https://github.com/flathub/org.polymc.PolyMC/issues/35); if I understood the situation correctly, if you're using the flatpak package, they will do the metadata server change for you (and it probably never had automatic updates enabled, since updates should be through flatpak itself).
