Appimage IS an attempt to bring windows style software (mis)management to windows. Flatpak is more like bringing android style app management along with limited permission sets, permission portals, and some sandboxing. It also leverages the server spaces container principals more and more to do!
Guix is also super cool! In fact using guix to build OCI containers and flatpaks to me is natural evolution of the declarative/reproduce able image concepts introduced by both.
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.
