Look at "Editor's Picks" section Expected result: This section contains seven of the snaps from the "featured" snap store section. 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. [Regression Potential] Solution is to ensure the popular snaps are populated first.
