   All packaging formats suffer from the same issue, if they're not natively supported or included, you still have to go and install the supporting packages - this includes Flatpak.

   Personally I prefer Appimage over Flatpak, as I just have to replace one single file in a single location and it just works, particularly with AppImaged installed. No need to use the terminal at all.

     If you’re using AppImage to ship your app on desktop Linux you’re doing a huge disservice to your users by perpetuating the use of a broken by design format that doesn’t even work on the most popular Linux distros without jumping into a terminal. Please stop shipping this format. Don’t use it. Don’t let your friends use it. Package any other way than this please
