if doomscrolling through Flathub is somehow distracting or occupying your attention too much, you can extend your /etc/hosts like this: 0.0.0.0 flathub.org 0.0.0.0 www.flathub.org 0.0.0.0 dl.flathub.org

I think that’s just regular scrolling. Doomscrolling (emphasis mine): Doomscrolling is the act of spending an excessive amount of time on digital content (e.g. short-form content, user-generated content, AI-generated content, and news) that elicit negative emotions. The concept was coined around 2018, and became more widespread in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The World Health Organization (WHO) observed that the pandemic was accompanied by widespread misleading information, conspiracy theories, and false reports, which it referred to as an “infodemic”.

No problem with Flathub, but FFS I wish so many projects would stop having all their releases and flatpaks or those damn snaps. If you're going to do just one format why not AppImage? It is portable, easy to use, multiple ways to sandbox it, and newer versions have the option to create their own home directory so the files created stay with the AppImage for use on portable drives or between users on a shared partition.

Flathub is fine for the kind of software that needs 100 dependencies and more than 10 minutes to compile on modern hardware.

Yeah I also lose some minutes scrolling everything I go to Flathub. AppImageHub isn’t that nice, I dunno why.

You doomscroll because you’re bored and have nothing to do. I doomscroll because I can’t find what I’m looking for. We are not the same.

The only justifications for using flatpak are having a musl system or if the software has way too many dependencies. Use your package manager when possible, otherwise use an appimage, or find a way to get the .deb or .rpm working on your distro.
