You don't install flathub. Flathub is a source of packages. You can install applications (like Firefox for example) FROM the Flathub service.

You can enable this using:

sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

This link explains it well. You can then search Flathub for packages.

Flathub isn't an application you can install

After enable flathub by using this command sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo I am unable to install any apps like brave. I use this command to install brave: flatpak install flathub com.brave.Browser Looking for matches…
F: An error was encountered searching remote ‘flathub’ for ‘com.brave.Browser’: Unable to load summary from remote flathub: GPG verification enabled, but no summary found (check that the configured URL in remote config is correct)
