Hi guys.

I wonder if you think this is right - perhaps if @devel
reads this can shed more light - that Gnome Software, when a
search is ran and a match is found, then it's Flatpack (and
only Flatpack) showing up a the source.
One such app which Gnome wants to flatpack-install is OBS
studio, whereas OBS Studio RPM only available via DNF.
Does this not seem right to me, meaning that RPM should have
priority, when no choice is given in terms of the source by
Gnome Software.

There should be a drop-down menu in the upper-right corner of the Gnome
Software window when looking at OBS, and that menu should have the
option to install the RPM instead. I tend to agree that having RPM be
the default would be better, but usually when there are multiple
sources for a give program, you can switch between them through the
drop-down menu I mentioned.

Like I said - ... then it's Flatpack (and only Flatpack) showing up as the source.. - certainly for me, in case of OBS. OBS Studio comes with RPMFusion repos but those are all switched on in Gnome's preferences. But check Thunderbird, also only Flatpack sources, RPM is not there.

Also, checking for updates in Software seems to take ages, sits there "Loading Updates" forever, in f35.

thanks, L.
