正在为全面的改变和改进做准备。以下是你需要了解的情况。 + +![flathub rebrand old logo vs new logo][1] + +作为一个 Flatpak 仓库，[Flathub][2] 一直非常受欢迎，并且它也是 Canonical 的 [Snap Store][3] 的良好替代品。 + +而现在，背后支持它的 GNOME 和 KDE 等准备更进一步，启动了一个 **完全的品牌重塑和发展该平台的计划**。 + +让我们看看 Flathub 的未来。 + +### Flathub 的品牌重塑 + +![a comparision between the old and new logos of flathub][4] + +随着 GNOME 的 Jakub Steiner **带头进行的品牌重塑**，Flathub 的外观和感觉都将发生改变。 + +他专注于使 Flathub 的新形象不至于太 “喧宾夺主”，而将重点始终放在应用程序本身。 + +他还提到： + +> 在中性灰色的基础上建立一个品牌并不容易，但这恰恰是针对 Flathub 品牌的要点。 +> +> 它为应用程序创造了闪耀的舞台，Flathub 本身并不炫目，它让应用程序成为你注意力的中心。 + +如果你对 UI/UX 感兴趣，我建议你阅读他的 [博文][5]，以更详细地了解 Flathub 的新视觉识别。 + +### Flathub 应用商店的发展 + +![Flathub beta 版门户截图][6] + +[GNOME 基金会][7] 和 [KDE e.V][8] 在建立和改进 Flathub 方面一直进展良好。自 2017 年推出以来，Flathub 一直在以非常惊人的速度发展着。 + +**发生了什么？** 在上个月的一项最新 [提案][9] 中，计划了一些值得关注的事情，重点是使 Flathub 成为一个激励其发布者的 Linux 应用生态系统。 + +简单来说，他们想把 Flathub 变成一个**成熟的应用商店**，让发布者可以从他们的应用中获得收益，这应该会改善资金状况。 + +**为什么？** 这样做的理由是；如今的这种资金障碍阻碍了潜在的开发者开发开源应用程序，这反过来又阻碍了整个开源生态系统的发展。 + +提案中强调的另一件事是： + +> 健康的应用程序生态系统对于开源软件桌面的成功至关重要，以便最终用户可以信任并控制他们面前的设备上的数据和开发平台。 + +**Flathub 将如何实现这一目标？** 定期捐赠或订阅系统是该计划的主要补充之一。 + +🛠️ 诸如防止滥用应用程序收录的审查工具、自动安全扫描，以及一些更细微的变化都已进入计划。 + +此外，Flathub 需要工具来防止误导性的应用名称、描述、屏幕截图等出现在平台上，并阻止它们，直到它们被审查，以保证被检查过。 + +总的来说，总结一下，以下是你可以期待的事情： + +- 定期捐款系统或订阅系统 +- 付费的应用程序 +- 改进 Flathub 的应用审查流程和监测更新变化的内部工具 + +你可能会发现一些实施方案已经出现在 [Flathub 的测试门户][10]，比如 [新的应用程序验证系统][11]。 + +此外，他们打算建立一个新的法律实体 **Flathub LLC**，来拥有和运营这项服务。 + +他们旨在通过它建立以下内容： + +> 透明的治理流程以维护社区信任和问责制，并建立一个咨询委员会/赞助流程以在我们的拨款申请的同时吸引商业赞助。 + +💸 **现在你可能在想，他们预算如何？** + +该提案提到，**未来一年的总预算为 20 万美元**。 + +其中包括 12 万美元的员工工资，以及 3 万美元的法律、专业和管理费用，最后 5 万美元用于平台的开发。 + +他们已经有 5 万美元用于前一阶段的开发，另外还有 10 万美元已经确认，所需预算的 50% 已经有了。 + +剩余的 10 万美元已经从 [Plaintext Group][12] 寻求，该集团是由 **谷歌前 CEO 埃里克·施密特** 创立的 Schmidt Futures 的一部分。 + +### 总结 + +好吧，我必须说这是一个非常值得关注的举措。 + +Flathub 已经受到了各类 Linux 用户的欢迎。因此，推动有助于资助该项目的功能，将 Flathub 变成一个丰富的应用生态系统，**有望成为桌面用户的通用 Linux 应用平台**。 + +💬 可能这就是 Linux 桌面用户所需要的。你怎么看？请在下面的评论中分享你的想法。 +

App Store -====== - -Flathub is gearing up for changes and improvements across the board. Here's what you need to know about it. - -![flathub rebrand old logo vs new logo][1] - -[Flathub][2] has been a popular portal as a Flatpak repository and has also acted as a good alternative to Canonical's [Snap Store][3]. - -And now, the folks behind it (including GNOME and KDE) are taking it a step further by initiating a **complete re-brand and plans to evolve** the platform. - -Let's look at what Flathub's future holds. - -### Flathub Rebrand - -![a comparision between the old and new logos of flathub][4] - -Flathub's look and feel are all set to change with the **rebranding spearheaded by Jakub Steiner** from GNOME. - -He has focused on making the new identity of Flathub not too 'loud and shouty', with the spotlight always being on the apps themselves. - -He also mentions: - -> Building a brand on neutral greys isn’t quite an easy sell, but precisely targets the main point of the Flathub brand. - -> It creates the stage for apps to shine. Flathub isn’t flashy by itself. It allows the apps to be at the center of your attention. - -If you are into UI/UX, I recommend you go through his [blog post][5] for a more detailed outlook on the new visual identity for Flathub. - -### Flathub App Store to Evolve - -![flathub beta portal screenshot][6] - -The [GNOME Foundation][7] and [KDE e.V][8] have been making good progress to build and improve Flathub. It has been evolving at a very impressive rate since its launch in 2017. - -**What is happening?:** In a recent [proposal][9] last month, some interesting things have been planned that focus on making Flathub a Linux application ecosystem that incentivizes its publishers. - -In simpler terms, they want to make Flathub into a **fully-fledged app store** that will let publishers earn off their apps, which should improve the funding situation. - -**Why?:** The reasoning for a move like this is that; such financial barriers prevent potential developers from getting into developing open-source apps, which in turn hampers the growth of the open-source ecosystem as a whole. - -Another thing highlighted in the proposal is: - -> A healthy application ecosystem is essential for the success of the OSS desktop, so end-users can trust and control their data and development platforms on the device in front of them. - -**How will Flathub achieve this?:** A recurring donation or subscription system is one of the major additions planned. - -🛠️ Things like review tools to prevent abusive application admissions, automated security scans, and a couple more subtle changes have been planned. - -In addition, Flathub needs tooling to prevent misleading application names, descriptions, screenshots, etc., from being on the platform and to block them until they have been reviewed to keep things checked. - -Overall, to sum up, here are the things that you can expect: - -- **Recurring donation system or subscription system** -- **Paid applications** -- **Internal tools to improve flathub's app review process and monitor changes for updates** - -You may find some implementations showing up at [Flathub's beta portal][10] like the [new app verification system][11]. - -Furthermore, they intend to establish a new legal entity, **Flathub LLC**, to own and operate the service. - -They aim to establish the following with it: - -> A transparent governance process to help maintain community trust and accountability, and build an advisory board / sponsorship process to attract commercial sponsorship to the service in parallel to our grant applications. - -💸 **Now you might be thinking, how will they fund all this?** - -The proposal mentions that the **total budget for the coming year is $200,000 USD**. - -It includes $120,000 towards staff salaries, and $30,000 towards legal, professional, and administration costs, with the final $50,000 going towards the platform's development. - -They already have $50,000, being used for the previous phase of development, with another $100,000 already confirmed, bringing it to 50% of their required budget. - -The remaining $100,000 has been sought from the [Plaintext Group][12], a part of Schmidt Futures, founded by the **former CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt**. - -### Concluding Thoughts - -Well, I must say this is a very interesting move. - -Flathub is already well-received by Linux users of all kinds. So, facilitating features that help fund projects and turn Flathub into a rich app ecosystem that can **potentially act as a universal Linux app platform for desktop users.** - -_💬 Probably this is what Linux desktop users need.
