As snaps are the newest and preferred method of installing things in Ubuntu it should show only these in the order provided by snapd, falling back to the default behaviour if no snaps are found. [Test Case] 1. Open GNOME Software 2. Look at "Editor's Picks" section Expected result: This section contains the snaps from the "featured" snap store section in the correct order. Observed result: This section contains a mix of .deb and snaps. Some snaps may not be shown due to not being able to fit them all in. The order is random (changes daily). [Regression Potential] Solution is to add featured snaps last after clearing the existing featured apps. GNOME Software was modified to not randomize this list. Some risk of breaking related code.
