The following guidelines are not required for submission to Flathub, but are best practices we recommend and consider for curation and promotion. These guidelines are designed to help your app and Flathub itself appear in the best light to users—they may change over time based on developer and user feedback.
I do think that as a store it should have some guidelines on quality, but not of the application icon’s styling
Screenshots shouldn’t be optional, and if dark and light themes are provided in the app, then show both. It’ll help users decide to try out the app. In my opinion, a lack luster presentation will discourage potential users.
I do lean towards the guidelines being enforced. As a user, it’ll give me more confidence in flatpaks.
