Flathub – The Linux App Store
> One thing I don't know about (which maybe somebody can inform me/us about): the wiki states that PRs are reviewed by Flathub reviewers, but I see no sign of human review on e.g. https://github.com/flathub/com.bitwarden.desktop/pull/167 (or others in that repo). What's the actual process?
In this case, I think the lack of human involvement is mostly a good thing. Flathub was criticised for having outdated packages[1]. Using automation to automatically update packages is mostly a good thing.
Obviously, we want to see thorough review of new packages, but that's a separate issue.
[1] I thought I read this in an LWN article, but I can't find it. But see e.g. https://github.com/flathub/org.qutebrowser.qutebrowser/issue...

Can I trust Flatpak apps if they are not managed by the app developer?
for example, bitwarden's flatpak on github shows basically just repackages the official debian build into a flatpak build. in this case i think it's pretty safe (in fact i use the flatpak).

Bitwarden not working
You might also be interested in learning a little about Flatpaks and downloading/installing programs from Flathub. I'll give you the basic background: It's an alternative (in some ways, honestly, modern) way of installing programs that can be sandboxed/permissioned. It's a way of releasing software that also helps ensure compatibility across a wide variety of systems. It's also a way of releasing software that can update independently from the base installation. You can think of it sort of like an app store on a phone where the programs are a bit self-contained and can update independently from the phone's operating system. https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.bitwarden.desktop

In using Ubuntu for ARM, I noticed there's a 4-year-old version of Bitwarden ARM64 on the Ubuntu Software Center. Be cool if you updated it, but maybe remove it at this point. It’s identified as unsafe due to ‘using a legacy windowing system’, and while it installs, the login errors out.

Publishing Electron apps to flathub

I'm a very basic user. What am I missing?
Since we're on the subject, you can also host your own BitWarden if you wanted. Bitwarden also has a desktop client for Linux as well. Alternatively if enabled 3rd Party Repositories or just manually enabled Flathub, you can install the Bitwarden flatpak.
- I made a BASH script that removes Snap from an Ubuntu system and replaces it with Flatpak.

Vote for the Bitwarden flatpak app to become official
It's not really that much of a risk. If you look at the yaml file you can see exactly what permissions it requests and what happens when the package is built.

What's the current obstacle to more developers directly pushing their apps to flathub?
Luckily, Flathub is transparent in what manifests are used in the production of the Flatpaks they host. For example, this is the one for Bitwarden. You can take some time to learn how Flatpaks are built, but this one seems pretty straight forward. They are taking the .deb file from Bitwarden's github release page and extracting the executable from there. Then it adds a couple extra files, which are viewable within the manifest file, to make it into a Flatpak app.

what's really important
yeah, that'd be crazy... especially, when there's a flatpak and an appimage if they really didn't want to add the repo..

Help, i cant install VS Code , tried various things , urgent
I use Vs Codium, works just the same but without all the Microsoft telemetry. You could use the flatpak in the software manager, but I got lazy filter things with FLatseal.

What is your opinion about text editor for privacy? What do you use?
I wouldn't spend too much time worrying about privacy in open-source editors. From a privacy perspective, being built on Electron isn't different from being programmed in C++ or anything else - they can still spy on you and do network requests. I'm not a fan of vscodium myself, but it sounds fine for your needs. You could run the editor in a sandbox that blocks network traffic. On Linux, this is easily done with the Flatpak and Flatseal.

SDK extensions not getting detected
I'm following the Vscodium instructions to get more languages in its flatpak (namely, Php). But it seems that flatpak doesn't detect my installed php sdk.

Red Hat donates $10,000 to OBS Studio, Flatpak to be official for Linux
VSCodium is a very, very, popular package. An Issue tells them that they shouldnt break the sandbox themselves by writing into the home dir.
- Uninstalling codium tries to uninstall gnome, rip.
