   @quad I really can't stand people downloading a binary and leaving it just there tbh... why do I work on doing updates to software if you're just not going to bother updating because it's easier to just download once... and I'm not going to put an update daemon because that's just next level of dirty. I feel like many people also feel like this and thus why I think you'll see a lot of devs pushing towards Flatpak instead of AppImage this year, even if just for testing dev builds.

     @quad Of course, you also get the advantage of running the software isolated and with permissions. Which surely can't be a bad thing.

     Personally I'm finding problems with a few Flatpak apps but they're rather because they're buggy than because the installer doesn't work. Perhaps I could help debug that?
