i really reeeally dont get why use an appimage at all? you can totally jsut run bwrap and mount stuf

i really reeeally dont get why use an appimage at all? you can totally jsut run bwrap and mount stuff dynamically just like flatpak does, instead of doing all the weird ass appimage things

unfortunately, some really good apps only release as source code or appimage, and haven't been made into packages in repositories for various reasons. So we're stuck using appimages...

asen23•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

i think should bug some of my appimage dev to create flatpak lol

tryhardsoccermomswag•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

on the real @tulip i think the reason we explicitly kind of support appimage here because bazzite was originally intended for the steam deck, and some applications there use the appimage format, or something like emudeck installs certain emulators as appimage vs flatpak for some reason

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

this is it

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

only reason we do it

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

some common deck software is only distributed as an appimage

Kyle Gospo•6/10/24, 2:41 AM

so we support it

Astral•6/10/24, 2:42 AM

I do appreciate that I can just... pull a random emulator from the AUR via distrobox if I need it and it's not in a flatpak

halva•6/10/24, 2:42 AM

like his "package manager" borks pkgs lol

halva•6/10/24, 2:43 AM

a feat of engineering, you'd think that it's one of those things that are just actually impossible to break

Astral•6/10/24, 2:43 AM

Ah the mess that is Saturn emulation

Astral•6/10/24, 2:43 AM

so many good games on that platform and emulation is just so janky

tar above appimage?

asen23•6/10/24, 2:45 AM

also i just remembered a question about distrobox, when you open app in it the distrobox(container) wont shut down by itself right? so it is better to have one or few big distrobox with like tens of app or is it still better to have one app per distrobox?

Astral•6/10/24, 2:45 AM

But yeah, mednafen

The hell is this supposed to mean

what does xscale and yscale mean??? like??? Pain

AAstral bruh momento

Valerie•6/10/24, 2:46 AM

It's only happened a few times but I've seen snap-only distribution for some apps

Ripps•6/10/24, 2:47 AM

people still do snap? At this point, I'm pretty sure flatpak has won. what exactly are the benefits of snap over flatpak anyway?

like the only actual real world advantage aside from "you can run console apps there" is that its documentation is comprehendible to a mortal
