    Appimage is a great way for developers to release a binary that works on all linux systems right away. It is a burden on devs to create multiple packages.

    Then distributions or users can take the appimage and build a package that integrates properly.

    It is also trivial to integrate an appimage into your system by just creating a file that your desktop will read and create a menu item.
