Hello, did you ever forget to activate/collect a Flow? If so, please react with ➕. I personally did (and that made a minor bug reach production), so I submitted a feature request: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-40228

Hm, isn't this a general thing? I think in most of the cases when something in my functions doesn't return unit, not using the result is a mistake

With Flow, it's even more likely to be a mistake, but you're right.

Cases where it's less likely to be a mistake is when using scoping functions (e.g. let or with) without producing a type like Flow.

definitely happened to me, and voted 👍
