    If you create malware and publish it on flathub, you are the upstream dev. But for sure it helps against duplicate scams.

      I can’t find it now, but I read that the verification process also includes human review (for the initial verification, not every update), so it should actually prevent “verified” malware (though it does nothing against unverified malware).

      Edit: Here’s an article with this and more info: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/966187/3ef48792e5e8c71d/

        Nice!

        Add flathub with --subset=verified and get apps you really need from their .flatpakref files
