With the recent critical thinking surrounding auto-connecting content interfaces I was reminded that there are actually two content interfaces that are autoconnected:
- mir-libs
- ubuntu-app-platform
mir-libs is being discussed in the above linked topic, but wanted to discuss ubuntu-app-platform separately. I consider this snap problematic now because it is no longer being maintained AFAIK and it is being auto-connected. Looking at the public store, the following snaps are currently using the ubuntu-app-platform interface:
- chronoburn
- extia-webapp
- facebook-webapp
- facebook-webapp-mardy
- fcole90-hexgl-webapp
- google-webapp
- mendiapp
- qcheckers
- quassel-kalikiana
- soracom-console
- ubuntu-app-platform
- ubuntu-calculator-app
- wuziqi
@niemeyer, I think we may want to revoke the snap declaration for ubuntu-app-platform snap adding auto-connection to the world, and add snap declarations for each existing app that uses it to all auto-connection so we don’t break anyone. What do you think? If we did this, I would ask the store team for a full list.
