@BrodieOnLinux I have long wondered if Fedora-RedHat-IBM could have the bandwidth in time and persons to help developers shipping work via Flathub with a Gnome Software/KDE Discover/Flathub combination? I reference Brodie's "Ethically Monetizing FOSS..." episode and point to things like elementary.io #AppCenter as an example of how some can put up easy for consumer-easy for developer economic models that are equitable and respect developer's time and effort. Developers publish to PlayStore and AppStore but also get paid through the stores. Currently, I have to find whatever Patreon page for each of my favorite apps individually, leaving Gnome Software and going to my browser. "Pay-what-you-can" models work if they are easy. Can major distros make doing the right thing a little easier? Can a case be made that this kind of system could drive GPL'd idea generation that can later be picked up by RHEL?
