To find and install apps that are not available on Flathub, you can try the following steps:

  1. Check other Flatpak repositories for the app you are looking for. Some popular repositories include KDE, GNOME, and Fedora.
  2. If you cannot find the app in any repositories, you can try building it yourself as a Flatpak using the flatpak-builder command.
  3. You can also try installing the app natively on your system using your distribution’s package manager. This may require additional configuration or dependencies.
  4. If all else fails, you can try running the app in a virtual machine or container running a different operating system that supports the app.

Remember, not all apps may be available as Flatpaks or may be difficult to package as a Flatpak. You may need to explore alternative installation methods or seek out the advice of the application’s developers or community for assistance.
