I love this idea, and frankly I may start doing it myself. A few warnings about Yunohost apps:
1. As with any software, just because it installs doesn't mean it functions as advertised. Rigorous testing is highly recommended. There have been some apps that looked and felt great at first, but the more I used them, the more bugs I found. Pretty standard stuff, but we all forget about this sometimes. 2. I haven't documented it well enough to file a bug report yet, but I'm almost sure that one time I installed App A and it worked, but then I installed App B alongside it and suddenly App A stopped working. In other words, I think I remember experiencing a silent install conflict. If anyone comes across this, it's worth noting, repeating, and then filing a bug report about. That's it.
