 We attribute the growth of Flathub to a few developments over the years, and especially the last several months:
 
-1. **Popular app availability**: Since we started Flathub, we've seen apps like Firefox, Google Chrome, Discord, VLC, Spotify, Telegram, Microsoft Edge, Steam, OBS Studio, Zoom, Thunderbird, and _many_ more make their way into the store. These are many of the apps people want and expect, especially if they're coming to a Linux desktop for the first time. Each time another popular app hits Flathub, it makes Flathub that much more compelling to users.

These are many of the apps people want and expect, especially if they're coming to a Linux desktop for the first time. Each time another popular app hits Flathub, it makes both Flathub and Linux that much more compelling to users.
 
-2. **Verified apps**: We've heard that some folks have held off installing specific apps or even using Flathub altogether because they didn't want a third-party maintainer redistributing an app they rely on; [verifying apps](/docs/for-users/verification/) solves this by assuring users their favorite app is actually coming from its developer. With an ever-increasing number of apps choosing to get verified—including both big names and many newer indie apps—the trust and adoption of Flathub increases.

 3. **Steam Deck**: It's not [just a meme](https://mastodon.blaede.family/@cassidy/111031129234702967); we suspect Flathub being included as the default app source for the Steam Deck's desktop mode has had a large positive effect on the usage of Flathub. Just look at some of the [most popular apps](https://flathub.org/apps/collection/popular): retro game emulators, game compatibility tools, gaming-oriented chat services, alternate game launchers—all the kinds of apps you'd expect Steam Deck users to want. And in fact, "game" is the single most common category of app on Flathub. It turns out selling ["multiple millions" of devices](https://www.theverge.com/2023/11/9/23954205/valve-steam-deck-multiple-millions) has an impact on the ecosystem!
 
 4. **Linux distro adoption**: In addition to shipping on Steam Deck, Flathub now comes included out of the box on at least Clear Linux, Endless OS, KDE Neon, Linux Mint, Pop!_OS, and Zorin OS—and [as of Fedora 38](https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2939), Flathub is available in its entirety when enabling third-party software sources. **Flathub is the preferred app store for Linux, and its grassroots adoption across the Linux desktop ecosystem proves that.**
 
-5. **New apps**: Last but definitely not least, we've entered a thrilling chapter of Flathub as an ecosystem. It's not just another source to get popular, big-name apps you'd expect to be able to get anywhere else; **Flathub has become the preferred app store for a growing number of indie, open source developers**. Developers are increasingly submitting their own new apps and directing their users to Flathub.

 And of course a large part of Flathub's continued growth has been due to the incredible work of the Flathub admins, contributors, and volunteers who have helped ensure Flathub remains the trustworthy and reliable service it has always been known as.
