Thanks for the offer, Nate. It unfortunately looks like upgrading from 5.18.5
to 5.21 brought more regressions than bug fixes. I've tallied up the main ones
at
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/ll388r/plasma_521_is_out_and_this_time_we_have_improved/go7koib/,
and I'm out of bandwidth at the moment to delve into figuring out the whole
development setup and patch submission process. If the code were hosted on
GitHub, with in-browser editing, that *would* be below my PITA threshold*.

Besides that, I'm not sure that updating AppStream data would be enough. What
about the different ratings and reviews that have accumulated for the different
versions of the same app? Take Spotify, for example - there's a difference of
about 100 ratings between the two versions that Discover shows. 

Honestly if bug 433166 keeps happening, I'll have to revert to 5.18.5, which I
know was stable.

* I've articulated way back in 2009 why GitHub's superior ease of use would
favor any projects hosted there at

PS: I'm not sure the status of this bug is really "FIXED", given the
discrepancy in ratings.
