I actually agree with Linux Mint's decision. You can not trust any random upload. Either it's an official/verified upload, or it shouldn't be there at all (or it should be a separate app for those who want it). That's why in my system, I only install from the official debian repos and not the community ones. I just don't trust random anonymous uploaders.
AUR users fuming at this comment
Yeah, the AUR seems pretty dodgy.
Why? they don't like using AUR or what?
Anyone can upload packages to the AUR, and people often use it without verying the source, so yeah that can be dodgy
You use the AUR because you want more packages.
I use the AUR because I believe in humanity.
We are NOT the same.
Unofficial Flatpaks are not random uploads
