Help: What is this and how do i remove it? (lemmy.zip)

This is a screenshot of a random application that appeared in my gnome software application. I used the software installer to install OBS (I don't usually use flatpak, I had to because OBS without flatpak is missing features i needed) and a few days later had an update, after the update, this appeared in the software section. Guessing its a glitch, but I'm worried its some type of malicious software and would like to know where to find its files to remove it/fix the glitch. I'm running Arch Linux, gnome DE, and only have OBS and a few plugins installed through flat hub.

so far Ive tried

-removing all flatpak apps.

-finding a .desktop file or bin folder with a placeholder name

-reinstalling gnome software

-I cant find any info online about anyone having a similar issue.

-running journalctl to find any jobs that i don't recognize

I'm at a loss, more info/logs/screenshots can be provided if necessary.

Thank you in advanced for your help!
