Discover should visually show source of package (deb/snap/flatpak) in list

[Janghou]

Linking someone to install inkscape can be doen with apt://inkscape

Discover with snap and flatpak enabled will then show three inkscape packages.

IMHO the list view should show (icon/color/name) the different sources(deb/snap/flatpak) of the packages. Also a version number is valuable info in the list view.

It is confusing to see three the same packages with slightly different worded descriptions, while the real info about the difference is hidden, and can only be seen after clicking all of them

Furthermore if a version of Inkscape is already installed, it should be listed first IMHO.

Probably a warning should be in place, when you try to install a version that is already installed from a different source (snap/flatpak/apt)
