FlatHub is starting to remind me of Snap.

I’ve tried reporting a few issues, but no one ever seems to pay any attention.

For example, Hüma Browser was discontinued a years ago, and the URL that FlatHub lists as the project’s homepage now redirects to a phishing site.

I don’t think anyone is monitoring their community forums. My account is still pending approval — Discourse forum software’s classic “you posted too soon after joining” issue.

I've added an #MCP server into #snapd to learn a little bit about this. I think it's very interesting what #LLMs can do and this has certainly taught me a lot.

You can play with this locally by building the snap or the classic package and installing on your system then enabling the 'mcp' experimental flag with:

snap set system experimental.mcp=true

Upps...

Ubuntu stellt aktualisierte snapd-Pakete bereit, die die Schwachstelle ausbessern. Für Ubuntu 24.04 LTS löst snapd 2.73+ubuntu24.04.1 das Problem, in 25.10 snapd 2.73+ubuntu25.10.1, in der derzeit in Entwicklung befindlichen 26.04 LTS (Dev) hingegen snapd 2.74.1+ubuntu26.04.1; im Upstream von snapd sind Versionen ab 2.75 fehlerbereinigt. Auch, wenn ältere Ubuntu-Versionen von 16.04 bis 22.04 LTS in der Standardeinstellung nicht verwundbar sind, empfiehlt Qualys die Installation der aktualisierten snapd-Pakete.https://www.heise.de/news/Ubuntu-root-Luecke-durch-snapd-11216189.html

Snapd notifications really need to be better handled. If I update the snap then why keep the notification about it on my screen?
