Who publishes this

Nobody has confirmed that the publisher controls this app id. Flatsonar warns before installing.

  • dev.budd.Switcheroo claims the domain budd.dev; only its owner can prove that
    publisher:namespace
  • the build has network access: it can download things the manifest does not list
    switcheroo:build-options:--share=network
  • same name as io.gitlab.adhami3310.Converter on Flathub but from a different repository
    publisher:lookalike
