Suggesting a Listed app

Listed apps are known apps Luma lists so people can find them in Depot. They install from their publisher or from Flathub. Luma does not host, sign or review them for quality. You do not need to be in the developer program to suggest one.

What a suggestion asks for

You sign in with any Luma Connect account and give:

• the app’s name;
• where it is published: a Flathub ID, the publisher’s own repository, or its official download page;
• why it belongs in Depot: what it does well and who it helps.

A Luma curator reviews each suggestion. One that is accepted becomes a Listed entry credited to your account.

What makes a good suggestion

• The app is maintained and works on current Linux systems.
• It comes from its real publisher. Link the official source, not a mirror or a repackaged copy.
• It is useful to people on Luma, and Depot does not already list it.
• It follows the All rules in the review guidelines: no malware, no impersonation, legal content.

A curator may decline a suggestion that does not come from the app’s real publisher, duplicates an existing listing, or breaks an All rule.

What a Listed entry shows

• The Listed tier, and where the app installs from: Flathub, or the publisher’s own repository or download page.
• Who publishes it. For Flathub apps, whether the publisher or the Flathub community packages it.
• For Flathub apps, permissions computed from Flathub’s published sandbox metadata, with the same vocabulary as apps on the Luma remote.
• Whether Luma has checked the app yet. Today every Listed app shows that Luma’s checks are still to come.

From Listed to Verified

If you publish a Listed app, you can move it to the Verified tier once the developer program opens: join the developer program, prove your app ID namespace, and publish it to the Luma remote. Luma then hosts and signs it, and its listing shows your verified developer name.
