In AppCenter we now show a simple percentage-based app rating when ratings are available from ODRS—the same ratings server used by apps like GNOME Software. When developers provide screenshots for multiple platforms, we now show you the ones intended for elementary OS. We’ve added support for app addons, and we now show when a game supports playing with controllers

#AppCenter #Flatpak

More serious comment: What's really great about that #Amiga / #MorphOS community is that there are a lot of software "authors", like, single persons writing serious, usable apps and maintaining them for years.
Yes, sometimes you need to pay for apps - maybe there's a relation? 😉
We'd need way more of that on #Linux, and it's a pity @elementary isn't succeeding offering paid apps on its #AppCenter yet.
It could be the best of what you'd call #artisanalSoftware

Exciting! We've (cc @marrkus) been building like crazy, and imo Buildstash is at a point where:

- if you're an app, game, or embedded team it's ready to use in your workflow now
- it just feels like a _really_ cool product 😊

Here's a demo of what it looks like today ⬇️

You should be able to use the apps and app stores that you trust without any gate keeping from your operating system. That’s a big part of why we chose to build our app store on @FlatpakApps

#Flatpak #AppCenter

@machinesbleedtoo not only that, but @EUCommission actively #sabotaged any #domestic (#EU) competitiors with backfiring ideas, like demanding that #AppStores pay #VAT in the buyers' nation without having EU-wide infrastructure to make this even possible.

Competitiors like #AndroidPit #AppCenter got killed by that.
https://appdevelopermagazine.com/important-announcement:-androidpit-app-center-to-close/

Whereas in #China there's still some competition, but #Huawei's #AppGallery demanding a 50% cut before taxes for #Games makes #Steam look like a saint!

@dec_hl I think something like an #App #curator site that allows #filtering / has said filters set by default as a "#SafeSearch" would be propably best...

Not to mention it'll get #downranked and #shadowbanned from both platfirms pretty quickly.

Appisto – You built the app. Now share it.

Easily distribute builds of your iOS or Android app to your team and clients. Without the hassle of going through reviews by Apple or Google.

As Microsoft shutters App Center today, many devs are on the lookout for a replacement..

Here's a thing I wrote on the history of App Center from its HockeyApp origins, why it's a loss, and why Buildstash (which I'm building!) may be the replacement you need ☺️

As Visual Studio App Center closes, a look back, and what to use now?

Today is retirement day for Microsoft's Visual Studio App Center, a product widely used by app developers to manage, test, and distribute their releases, alongside other features including automated builds and crash analytics. Launched as App Center in 2017, the product's origins actually predate this in the form of HockeyApp,

Exactly that is true: #Fragmentation kills the EU!

That's why there's no #AndroidPit #AppCenter anymore!

Thanks again to @dw_innovation / #DWnews for that video.
