If you have to choose between using an App Image, from the developpers official site or an AUR package (or apt e.g), what do you choose?

      I always use that appimageupdate tool. It doesn’t work on all of them. The creator has to support it.

        You can try bauch It is an graphical application to search install and update AppImage, Debian and Arch Linux packages (including AUR), Flatpak, Snap and Web applications.

          Bauh can be installed on Fedora? I never realized that. I use to use it when I ran Endeavour OS, but I always thought it was an arch exclusive app.

            Yes, you can just download the Appimage version and execute it and install bauh from the app. On Fedora it will only support the FlatPak and AppImages not system repo and corps.

              Man, thank you for bringing that up. I love bauh. Already installed. Even for appimages, I’d much rather use it than go hunting for them everywhere
