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?

I like appimages personally.Find them useful when i have conflict of depencies in package manager.I don’t like snaps comparing to flatpak.Flatpak let u add custom repositories but not snaps ,canonical want to control from where u will install snap apps.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
