The feature is currently available in nightly builds and will roll out to stable releases after testing. 83 2 3. 3 [](https://daily.dev/posts/what-a-shame-flathub-is-ranking-on-google-for-po-nhub-downloads-fldmymmbg "What a Shame! FlatHub is Ranking on Google for Po*nHub Downloads") Article It's Foss · 43w What a Shame! FlatHub is Ranking on Google for Po\*nHub Downloads Flathub, the official Flatpak app store, is ranking highly on Google for adult content downloader searches due to a developer exploiting its reputation. A developer named Warlord Software published three downloader applications on Flathub and tagged them with NSFW keywords, leveraging Flathub's domain authority to gain over 250,000 downloads for proprietary apps with premium licenses. The developer's own website contains no mention of these keywords, revealing a deliberate SEO exploitation strategy that uses Flathub's trusted platform to rank for competitive search terms that would be impossible for a new site to achieve. 49 10 4. 4 [](https://daily.dev/posts/i-used-instagram-from-the-linux-terminal-it-s-cool-until-it-s-not--tdne0j86m "I Used Instagram from the Linux Terminal.
