Flat snap and app images. You can’t hang out in linux land for long with out hearing about them. Now I get why Snap aren’t love by some, they are not fully open souse. But why so little love for app images?

    Think of AppImage like a standalone executable on windows, you download it, it just works and thats good. But it doesnt get automatic updates and to get a new feature you need to download it again. Flatpaks and Snaps don’t have this issue and are more like traditional package managers.
