I'm digging this new @flathub section promoting mobile apps!

@bragefuglseth @flathub This looks very nice, but it's disappointing that it seems to only promote gnome/libadwaita apps. I had a quick look, and I think the first Kirigami app is only on page 5.

It also seems to be missing Kasts (disclaimer: I'm a developer). I'm pretty sure it's been marked as mobile compatible in the app data. (It is in fact 100% mobile compatible.)

@mogwai @flathub Looking at the metainfo file, Kasts lacks the necessary metadata. It has been marked as supporting touch, but it also needs a <display_length compare="ge"> in a <requires> tag, containing the minimum width the app supports.

@bragefuglseth @flathub Thanks! I appreciate the feedback, and also appreciate that there are efforts to reach out to other communities beyond gnome.

On the other hand, I'm just a single hobby developer and I don't have the time to actively keep track of all the appstream developments all the time. It would be nice to have some kind of mechanism to alert developers of relevant changes that might impact visibilty rather than expect developers to figure it out by themselves.
